(1) The rate of the levy on strawberry runners is worked out using this table.

(2) The number is: (a) if the number of strawberry runners purchased is 1,000 or more—the number of runners purchased divided by 1,000 and rounded up, if necessary, to the nearest whole number; or (b) if the number of strawberry runners purchased is less than 1,000—1.

Note: Example 1: Assume 10,000 strawberry runners are purchased for use in the production of strawberries. Since the number of runners purchased is a multiple of 1,000, the relevant number is 10 (10,000 divided by 1,000 with no rounding up required). The rate is $78.70 ($7.87 x 10) + $1.30 (13 cents x 10) = $80.

Note: Example 2: Assume 4,800 strawberry runners are purchased for use in the production of strawberries. Since the number of runners purchased is more than 1,000 but not a multiple of 1,000, the relevant number is 5 (4,800 divided by 1,000, which is 4.8 and rounded up to 5). The rate is $39.35 ($7.87 x 5) + 65 cents (13 cents x 5) = $40.
