Minnesota Statutes, section 290.20, subdivision 1, grants the commissioner the authority to require a taxpayer to use a method of apportionment other than that prescribed in Minnesota Statutes, section 290.191, if:
When the commissioner has determined that the statutory apportionment formulas do not fairly reflect net income as applied to a specific industry, the commissioner may adopt apportionment rules for uniform application to that industry. If rules have been adopted with respect to a specific industry, a taxpayer's petition under part 8020.0100 must demonstrate the unfairness of the application of the industry-specific rule as applied to it.
