Whenever the existence of any participating employer, who was an instrumentality of 2 or more employers, is terminated for any reason and there is no territory to be divided, the liability for contributions of the previous employer shall be divided between the sponsoring employers in the same proportion as the net assets of the terminating employer are divided.
40.05(2)(f)3.
3. If the department determines that it is not feasible to allocate the liability as provided in

sub. (2m), an employer may not pay for all or part of any increase in benefit adjustment contributions that is required under this subdivision.
40.05(2n)(b)
(b) If under
par. (a) 2. a decrease in benefit adjustment contributions under
