(c) Subject to subsection (d), a licensed owner or operating agent may at any time during a state fiscal year deduct from the adjusted gross receipts reported by the licensed owner or operating agent adjusted gross receipts attributable to qualified wagering. A licensed owner or operating agent must take a deduction under this section on a form and in the manner prescribed by the department.

(d) Subject to subsection (f), a licensed owner or operating agent may not deduct more than the following amounts in a particular state fiscal year with respect to the qualified wagering conducted at a particular riverboat:
