annual fee therefor for each quarter and fraction of a quarter remaining during the period
for which the new license is issued, except as otherwise specified hereinafter.
(c) All new businesses for whom the gross receipts of such business are made
the basis for fixing the amount of such license shall pay their annual fee based on actual
gross receipts received during the period for which the new license is issued. For any
business which is commenced subsequent to April first, the renewal fee shall be based
upon an annualization of the actual gross receipts received during the period for which
the new license is issued. In the event an applicant fails to submit a report of the actual
gross receipts received pursuant to Section 21-77, the fee shall be based on the
collector's estimate of the actual gross receipts received pursuant to Section 21-79. In
lieu of payment in advance, each applicant shall post a deposit in the amount hereinafter
indicated.
(1) All new businesses beginning business on or after April first of the current
year but before April first of the following year shall post a deposit of two hundred dollars
($200.00).
(2) All new businesses beginning business on or after March first of the current
year but before April first of current year shall post a deposit equivalent to one and one -
twelfth (1 1/12 ) of the required deposit for all new businesses beginning April first.
Where an applicant's fee is determined to be in excess of the amount of the
specified deposit, said deficiency shall be added without interest or penalty to the amount
of the applicant's renewal fee as calculated pursuant to Sections 21-77 or 21-79. Where
an applicant ceases to transact and carry on the business licensed on or before the
expiration of the period for which the new license is issued, and where the applicant's fee
is determined to be in excess of the amount of the specified deposit, the applicant shall
remain liable for said deficiency which shall be deemed due and collectible at the same
time and in the same manner as all other annual gross receipts fees due and payable
upon renewal.
Where an applicant's fee is determined to be less than the amount of the specified
deposit, said surplus shall be applied without interest as a credit against the amount of
the applicant's renewal fee as calculated pursuant to Sections 21-77 or 21-79. Where an
applicant ceases to transact and carry on the business licensed on or before the
expiration of the period for which the new license is issued, and where the applicant's fee
is determined to be less than the amount of the specified deposit, said surplus may be
