“31.2. For the purpose of computing the sum to be adjusted, an aliquot share is first computed in respect of the municipality by applying Subdivision 1.

“31.3. The sum to be adjusted is the difference obtained by subtracting any neutrality amount that must be paid to the municipality in 2009 according to the data available on 1 May 2009 and that has not been subtracted under section 25.3 from an aliquot share computed in accordance with section 25.2, from the aliquot share computed in respect of the municipality in accordance with section 31.2.

The sum is equal to zero where the aliquot share is equal to or less than the neutrality amount.

“32. The adjustment of the sum computed in accordance with section 31.3 or 31.4 consists in multiplying that sum by the factor determined by the following consecutive operations:

(1)  the total formed by the equalization amounts computed in accordance with section 30 is subtracted from the sum to be apportioned under section 18; and
