2012Therefore, as presented by the parties, the issue presented on appeal is whether the Department had the authority to summarily correct Ameritech’s purported use of the wrong apportionment factor formula because it constituted a mathematical error under section 1501(a)(12)(A) of the Income Tax Act. 35 ILCS 5/1501(a)(12)(A) (West 2000). ¶ 48 Second, it appears that the Department’s authority to correct mathematical errors under the Income Tax Act has been previously discussed in only two cases: Walsh, 196 Ill.
