OK, I think I've figured this franchise tax thing out. If I'm wrong, correct me. The below from the DE SOS website
----------------------------------------------------
To use this method, you must give figures for all issued shares (including treasury shares) and total gross assets in the spaces provided in your Annual Franchise Tax Report. Total Gross Assets shall be those "total assets" reported on the U.S. Form 1120, Schedule L (Federal Return) relative to the company's fiscal year ending the calendar year of the report. The tax rate under this method is $250.00 per million or portion of a million of the assumed par value capital, which is calculated as described below, if the assumed par value capital is greater than $1,000,000. If the assumed par value capital is less than $1,000,000, the tax is calculated by dividing the assumed par value capital by $1,000,000 then multiplying that result by $250.00.
----------------------------------------------------

It appears to me that if the franchise tax was $14,479 and the rate is $250 per million of calculated capital then the total gross assets listed on the franchise tax report must be around $59 million.
