If the funds are offset as provided under this paragraph, the funds shall be distributed to each taxing unit in the amount of that taxing unit's offset;
(ii) The amount may be credited to each property appearing on the tax roll for the year for which the credit applies within the dissolved district on the basis of current assessed value. If the surplus funds are distributed under this paragraph, the surplus funds shall be deposited in the unsegregated tax collections account established and distributed in the same manner as other funds in that account.
