(1) In determining if the contracting company is a qualified New York manufacturer, it may include the assets and employees used in the production activities in that determination only if the contracting company owns the assets being used by the production company in the production activities and only its employees operate or use those assets.

(2) Receipts earned by the contracting company from the sale of goods produced by the production company on behalf of the contracting company are not receipts from the sale of goods produced by manufacturing activities and, thus, would not be included in the numerator of the fraction used in the computation of the principally engaged test.
