(a) For failure to pay taxes due other than taxes withheld, ten percent per year or fraction thereof.
(b) For failure to remit taxes withheld from employees, ten percent per month or fraction thereof.
(c) For failure to file any return required under Section 193.30, ten percent of the taxes due, but in any event a minimum penalty of twenty-five dollars ($25.00).
(d) For the underpayment of estimated taxes as required by Sections 193.37, 193.38, 193.39 and 193.40, ten percent per year, figured at 0.833 percent per month for each month or fraction thereof that payment is delinquent.

The penalty for underpaying estimated taxes is figured separately for each installment.
