Each employer's contri- bution rate for each subsequent year or part thereof shall be calcu- lated on the basis of his records filed with the Board and benefit payments disbursed through the applicable computation date."

In case the transfer of any of the assets of a covered employer's business by any means whatever, otherwise than in the ordinary course of trade, such transfer shall be deemed a transfer of business and shall constitute the transferee a successor hereunder, unless the Board, on its own motion or on application of an inter- ested party, finds that all of the following conditions exist: "(1) The transferee has not assumed any of the transferor's obligations; and "(2) The transferee has not continued or resumed transferor's good will; and "(3) The transferee has not continued or resumed the business of the transferor, either in the same establishment or elsewhere; and "(4) The transferee has not employed substantially the same employees as those the transferor had employed in connection with the assets transferred. "(b) The successor, if not already subject to this section, shall become an 'employer' subject hereto on the date of such transfer, and shall accordingly become liable for contributions hereunder from and after said date. "(c) The successor shall take over and continue the employer's account, including its reserve and all other aspects of its experience under this section, in proportion to the pay roll or employees assign- able to the transferred business as determined for the purposes of this section by the Board.
