The quarter being reported is (check one): January 1, 2012 - March 31, 2012 April 1, 2012 - June 30, 2012 July 1, 2012 - September 30, 2012 October 1, 2012 - December 31, 2012 Part 3: Units Sold for the Quarter Indicated Indicate the number of individual cigarettes and units of "roll-your-own" tobacco sold by the manufacturer (whether directly or through a distributor, retailer, or similar intermediary or intermediaries) for the 2012 quarter indicated above and produce any and all documentation of the sale or transfer of cigarettes or RYO into Montana: A. __________________________ Part 4: Deposit Amount The deposit amount for 2012 is $.0291058 per unit sold.* B. $.0291058 Multiply line A by line B to calculate the total deposit due. This amount must be deposited in the Montana subaccount of the manufacturer's qualified escrow account within 30 days after the end of the quarter indicated above. * Mont. Code Ann. § 16-11-403(2)(a) requires payments to be "adjusted for inflation." Mont. Code Ann. § 16-11-402(1) defines "adjusted for inflation" as "increased in accordance with the formula for inflation adjustment set forth in Exhibit C to the Master Settlement Agreement. Each year, this formula increases 3% or the actual inflation rate, whichever is greater. Because the actual inflation rate cannot be determined until the end of 2012, tobacco product manufacturers required to make quarterly escrow payments will be required, in their quarterly escrow payments, to deposit an amount that has been cumulatively adjusted for inflation by 3%. When the inflation rate for 2012 has been determined, manufacturers will be advised and then have until April 15, 2013, to deposit any additional money, if necessary, to satisfy the actual inflation amount under the Act. The 2012 inflation rate, increased by 3%, is 54.42219. Multiplying the 2012 base escrow deposit amount $.0188482, by the inflation rate, 54.42219%, equals the cumulative inflation adjustment amount of $.0102576. Adding the base escrow deposit amount, $.0188482, to the cumulative inflation adjustment amount, $.0102576, equals $.0291058.
