(ii) Benefits paid to a claimant under a
determination or decision made pursuant to this article shall not
be charged against any employer's experience rating account if as
a result of reversal or redetermination a disqualification is
imposed for a week or weeks for which said payments were made.
(4) The Executive Director shall determine for each
fiscal year the contribution rate of each employer who has met
the requirements specified in subsection (c)(3) of this section,
on the basis of his experience-rating record, in the following
manner:
(i) The Executive Director shall compute for
each employer a benefit ratio that is the quotient obtained by
dividing the total regular, ADDITIONAL and extended benefits
chargeable to his experience-rating record and paid within the
three calendar years immediately preceding the computation date
by the total of his annual payrolls for the three calendar years
immediately preceding that computation date. However, for any
employer who has not been subject to the provisions of this
article for a period of time sufficient to meet the
three-calendar-year requirement, that benefit ratio is the
quotient obtained by dividing the total benefits chargeable to
his experience-rating record and paid during the entire period,
ending on December 31 immediately preceding the computation date,
that he has been subject to this article by the total amount of
wages for employment paid by the employer during the period
beginning with the first day of the calendar quarter in which he
first became subject to the provisions of this article and ending
on December 31 of the calendar year immediately preceding that
computation date, with respect to which wages contributions have
been paid on or before that computation date. That benefit ratio
shall be computed to the fourth decimal point.
(ii) The contribution rate of each employer for
whom a benefit ratio is computed shall be as set forth in the
table below, hereafter referred to as the "table of basic rates":
