API documentation

Compute a Delaware corporation’s franchise tax

Delaware’s annual franchise tax for one year by both of its methods (Authorized Shares, and Assumed Par Value Capital when the issued shares and gross assets are given), and the lesser, which is what is owed. Every step names the fact revision it read and the Division of Corporations’ own sentence. The annual report fee is not included.
