     4  ance  of credit. A taxpayer who is a residential property owner shall be
     5  allowed a credit, to be computed as hereinafter  provided,  against  the
     6  tax  imposed by this article. The amount of the credit shall be equal to
     7  twenty-five percent of the cost of the labor  and  materials  needed  to
     8  install sprinkler systems as defined by section one hundred fifty-five-a
     9  of  the  executive  law,  by  the  residential property owner, provided,

    14  this subsection for any taxable year shall exceed the taxpayer's tax for
