(3) The tax imposed under subsection (1) shall be considered a tax imposed under ORS Chapter 317 or 318, whichever is applicable, and shall be returned, estimated, assessed and collected and otherwise treated in the same manner as the tax imposed under ORS Chapter 317 or 318. The allocation and apportionment rules of this chapter and ORS Chapter 305 apply to the income subject to the tax imposed under this section.
