(a) The tax imposed by this part does not bear interest if it is paid prior to the date on which it otherwise becomes delinquent.

Interest under this section shall be compounded daily.

(b) The amendments made by Chapter 323 of the Statutes of 1998 shall apply to delinquent amounts unpaid on or after January 1, 1999, to December 31, 2000, inclusive.
