(b) If the excise tax imposed by ORS 319.530 is overpaid, the department may credit interest to the account of the taxpayer in the amount of 0.0329 percent per day up to a maximum amount that equals any interest assessed against the taxpayer under paragraph (a) of this subsection in any given audit period.

(4) No seller or user who incurs a tax liability as provided in ORS 319.510 to 319.880 shall knowingly and willfully fail to report and pay the tax liability to the department as required by ORS 319.510 to 319.880.
