CHAPTER 3 - SPECIALIST LIABILITY RULES

Division 715 - Interactions between this Part and other areas of the income tax law  

Subdivision 715-A - Treatment of unrealised losses existing when ownership or control of a company changes before or during consolidation  

Effect on Subdivision 165-CC of entity leaving consolidated group

SECTION 715-105   Second choice: head company's final RUNL applied in reducing adjustable values of leaving assets that are loss assets  

715-105(1)    
The second choice is to reduce under this section the ^* adjustable value of each leaving asset (a loss asset ) for which the ^* head company would have had a notional capital loss, or notional revenue loss, under section 165-115F at the time (the test time ) just before the leaving time if the test time had been a ^* changeover time for the head company. The choice has effect accordingly.

Note:

The consequences of the choice are worked out under this section and section 715-145 .

715-105(2)    
If:

(a) 2 or more entities cease to be ^* subsidiary members of the ^* consolidated group at the leaving time; and

(b) 2 or more of them make the second choice;

the choices have effect in whichever order the ^* head company determines.

715-105(3)    
This section applies to each of the loss assets in order, according to their respective ^* adjustable values (apart from this section) at the test time: from largest to smallest. (If an asset has more than one such adjustable value, use the greater or greatest of them.)

715-105(4)    
At the test time, the ^* adjustable value of the loss asset is reduced to the asset's ^* market value at that time.

715-105(5)    
However, if the ^* head company's ^* final RUNL at the leaving time (as reduced by any previous reductions under this section) is less than the difference between:

(a) the ^* adjustable value of the loss asset (apart from this section) at the test time; and

(b) the asset's ^* market value at the test time;

the adjustable value is instead reduced at the test time by that final RUNL.

715-105(6)    
That ^* final RUNL is reduced by the amount of the reduction under subsection (4) or (5). If 2 or more such reductions are made for the same asset (because it has 2 or more different characters), that final RUNL is reduced by the greater or greatest of the reductions.
