CALCULATION OF EQUIVALENT TAXABLE INCOME (ETI) FOR NON-RESIDENT/PART-YEAR RESIDENT FILERS
1. For taxpayers with filing status 1  (single, head of household, or widow(er) with dependent child) or filing status 2 
   (married filing jointly).
   If West Virginia Income Tax is zero, then ETI is zero; If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than zero and less than or 
   equal to $300, the ETI is West Virginia
   Income Tax divided by 0.0300;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $300 and less than or equal to $900, then ETI is $10,000 plus the quantity 
   obtained by subtracting $300 from the West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0400;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $900 and less than or equal to $1,575, then ETI is $25,000 plus the quantity 
   obtained by subtracting $900 from the West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0450;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $1,575 and less than or equal to $2,775, then ETI is $40,000 plus the 
   quantity obtained by subtracting $1,575 from the West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0600;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $2,775, then ETI is $60,000 plus the quantity obtained by subtracting $2,775 
   from West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0650.

2.   For taxpayers with filing status 3 (married filing separately):
   If West Virginia Income Tax is zero, then ETI is zero.
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than zero and less than or equal to $150, the ETI is West Virginia Income Tax 
   divided by 0.0300;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $150 and less than or equal to $450, then ETI is $5,000 plus the quantity 
   obtained by subtracting $150 from the West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0400;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $450 and less than or equal to $787.50, then ETI is $12,500 plus the quantity 
   obtained by subtracting $450 from the West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0450;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $787.50 and less than or equal to $1,387.50, then ETI is $20,000 plus the 
   quantity obtained by subtracting $787.50 from the West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0600;
   If West Virginia Income Tax is greater than $1,387.50, then ETI is $30,000 plus the quantity obtained by subtracting 
   $1,387.50 from West Virginia Income Tax and dividing this result by 0.0650.
B.   Calculate equivalent exemption value (EEV).
   The equivalent exemption value is determined by multiplying the reported exemption value by the reported income 
   percentage.
C.   Equivalent West Virginia Adjusted Gross Income.
   The Equivalent West Virginia Adjusted Gross Income is determined as the minimum of Total West Virginia Income (from 
   Form IT-140NR/PY) and the sum of the Equivalent Taxable Income (ETI) and the Equivalent Exemption Value (EEV).
