(7) Gross receipts, other than those receipts described in subdivisions (1) to (6), inclusive, of this subsection, are assignable to this state to the extent the taxpayer's market for the sales is in this state.
(8) If a taxpayer concludes that it cannot reasonably determine the assignment of its receipts in accordance with subdivisions (1) to (7), inclusive, of this subsection, such taxpayer may petition the commissioner for approval to use a methodology that reasonably approximates the assignment of such receipts provided for in this subsection. Any such petition shall be submitted not later than sixty days prior to the due date of the return for the first income year to which the petition applies, determined with regard to any extension of time for filing such return. The commissioner shall grant or deny such petition before such due date.
