# (2)

"days spent in terminals" refers to hours spent in terminals by mobile transportation equipment, and is computed by dividing the total number of hours by 24; time spent in terminals does not include periods when the interstate mobile transportation equipment is (A) not being loaded or unloaded; (B) not in service; or (C) idle due to strikes, repairs and maintenance, downshifts, or seasonal reduction of service; for purposes of computing "days spent in terminals," it is presumed that equal time is spent loading and unloading unless the taxpayer provides acceptable evidence to the department which rebuts that presumption;

# (3)

"terminal days ratio" is the number of days spent in Alaska terminals divided by the total number of days spent in terminals everywhere;

# (8)

the "value" of rented real and tangible personal property means the product of eight times the net annual rental rate (see AS 43.19.010, Article IV.11, and 15 AAC 19.191);
