  2. (b) If an individual is employed by two (2) or more employers during his base period, the base period employer’s account shall be charged an amount bearing the same ratio to total benefits paid to the individual as the amount of wages payable by the employer bears to total wages payable by all employers during the individual’s base period.

(c) Benefits paid to an individual by this state pursuant to a wage-combining arrangement under W.S. 27-3-608(b) and attributable in part to wages and employment covered by this act shall be charged in accordance with this section to the account of that individual’s base period employer. If, however, the benefits are paid by another state, the amount chargeable to employers in this state for whom the individual was previously employed shall be the amount reimbursed by this state to the paying state.

(ii) The individual receiving benefits voluntarily leaves work without good cause attributable to employment or was discharged from employment for misconduct in connection with this work, provided however, that chargeability of an employer’s account for benefits paid to a claimant in a particular benefit year shall be based solely on the last separation that occurred before the filing of the claimant’s claim for which the claimant is monetarily eligible and shall not be affected by a separation that occurs after the filing of the initial claim and during the benefit year;
    3. (iii) Repealed by Law 1984, ch. 50, 3
