(A) Every A-1 or A-1c permit holder in this state, every bottler, importer, wholesale

dealer, broker, producer, or manufacturer of beer outside this state and within the

United States, and every B-1 permit holder and importer importing beer from any manufacturer,

bottler, person, or group of persons however organized outside the United States for

sale or distribution for sale in this state, on or before the eighteenth day of each

month, shall make and file with the tax commissioner upon a form prescribed by the

tax commissioner an advance tax payment in an amount estimated to equal the taxpayer's

tax liability for the month in which the advance tax payment is made.  If the advance tax payment credits claimed on the report are for advance tax payments

received by the tax commissioner on or before the eighteenth day of the month covered

by the report, the taxpayer is entitled to an additional credit of three per cent

of the advance tax payment and a discount of three per cent shall be allowed the taxpayer

at the time of filing the report if filed as provided in division (B) of this section

on any amount by which the tax liability reflected in the report exceeds the advance

tax payment estimate by not more than ten per cent.  The additional three per cent credit and three per cent discount shall be in consideration

for advancing the payment of the tax and other services performed by the permit holder

and other taxpayers in the collection of the tax. “ Advance tax payment credit ” means credit for payments made by an A-1, A-1c, or B-1 permit holder and any other

persons during the period covered by a report which was made in anticipation of the

tax liability required to be reported on that report. “ Tax liability ” as used in division (A) of this section means the total gross tax liability of an

A-1, A-1c, or B-1 permit holder and any other persons for the period covered by a

report before any allowance for credits and discount. (B) Every A-1 or A-1c permit holder in this state, every bottler, importer, wholesale

dealer, broker, producer, or manufacturer of beer outside this state and within the

United States, and every B-1 permit holder importing beer from any manufacturer, bottler,

person, or group of persons however organized outside the United States, and every

S-1 permit holder, on or before the tenth day of each month, shall make and file a

report for the preceding month upon a form prescribed by the tax commissioner which

report shall show the amount of beer produced, sold, and distributed for sale in this

state by the A-1 or A-1c permit holder, sold and distributed for sale in this state

state and within the United States, the amount of beer imported into this state from

outside the United States and sold and distributed for sale in this state by the B-1

permit holder or importer, and the amount of beer sold in this state by the S-1 permit

holder. The report shall be filed by mailing it to the tax commissioner, together with payment

of the tax levied by sections 4301.42 and 4305.01 of the Revised Code shown to be due on the report after deduction of advance payment credits and any

additional credits or discounts provided for under this section. (C)(1) Every A-2, A-2f, A-4, B-2, B-2a, B-3, B-4, B-5, S-1, and S-2 permit holder in this

with the tax commissioner upon a form prescribed by the tax commissioner which report

shall show, on the report of each A-2, A-2f, A-4, B-2a, S-1, and S-2 permit holder

the amount of wine, cider, and mixed beverages produced and sold, or sold in this

state by each such A-2, A-2f, A-4, B-2a, S-1, and S-2 permit holder for the next preceding

calendar month and such other information as the tax commissioner requires, and on

the report of each such B-2, B-3, B-4, and B-5 permit holder the amount of wine, cider,

and mixed beverages purchased from an importer, broker, wholesale dealer, producer,

or manufacturer located outside this state and sold and distributed in this state

by such B-2, B-3, B-4, and B-5 permit holder, for the next preceding calendar month

and such other information as the tax commissioner requires. (2) Every such A-2, A-2f, A-4, B-2, B-2a, B-3, B-4, B-5, S-1, and S-2 permit holder in

this state shall remit with the report the tax levied by sections 4301.43 and, if

applicable, 4301.432 of the Revised Code less a discount thereon of three per cent of the total tax so levied and paid, provided

the return is filed together with remittance of the amount of tax shown to be due

thereon, within the time prescribed.  Any permit holder or other persons who fail to file a report under this section,

for each day the person so fails, may be required to forfeit and pay into the state

treasury the sum of one dollar as revenue arising from the tax imposed by sections 4301.42 , 4301.43 , 4301.432 , and 4305.01 of the Revised Code , and that sum may be collected by assessment in the manner provided in section 4305.13 of the Revised Code . (3) If the tax commissioner determines that the quantity reported by a person does not

warrant monthly reporting, the commissioner may authorize the filing of returns and

the payment of the tax required by this section for periods longer than one month. (D) Every B-1 permit holder and importer in this state importing beer from any manufacturer,

bottler, person, or group of persons however organized, outside the United States,
