        257.21  COMPUTATION OF INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORT AMOUNT.

         The department of management shall establish the amount of
      instructional support property tax to be levied and the amount of
      instructional support income surtax to be imposed by a district in
      accordance with the decision of the board under section 257.19 for
      each school year for which the instructional support program is
      authorized.  The department of management shall determine these
      amounts based upon the most recent figures available for the
      district's valuation of taxable property, individual state income tax
      paid, and budget enrollment in the district, and shall certify to the
      district's county auditor the amount of instructional support
      property tax, and to the director of revenue the amount of
      instructional support income surtax to be imposed if an instructional
      support income surtax is to be imposed.
         The instructional support income surtax shall be imposed on the
      state individual income tax for the calendar year during which the
      school's budget year begins, or for a taxpayer's fiscal year ending
      during the second half of that calendar year and after the date the
      board adopts a resolution to participate in the program or the first
      half of the succeeding calendar year, and shall be imposed on all
      individuals residing in the school district on the last day of the
      applicable tax year.  As used in this section, "state individual
      income tax" means the taxes computed under section 422.5, less the
      amounts of nonrefundable credits allowed under chapter 422, division
      II.
