For the purposes of this Subdivision, the following amounts are divisible amounts in relation to a company in relation to a year of income:

(d) any amount included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under paragraph 36(3A)(b) ;


(e) any amount included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under paragraph 36AAA(2)(c) or (d) or (2A)(g) or (h);


(f) where an amount is included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under paragraph 36AA(2)(a) by reason that the company has made an election under subsection 36AA(1) in relation to the profit arising in respect of the death or destruction of live stock - so much of the amount included in the assessable income of the company as is equal to the amount of that profit;

(j) where an amount is included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under section 97 or 98A in respect of a share of the net income of a trust estate and the Commissioner considers that the whole or a part of that share of the net income was derived from income that was derived during a period that is a relevant period in relation to the company in relation to the year of income - that share of the net income, or that part of the share of the net income, as the case may be.

50E(1A)   [Some amounts not divisible]  

For the purposes of this Subdivision, so much of any amount included in a company's assessable income of a year of income under section 97 or 98A as is a capital gain that forms part of a net capital gain is not a divisible amount in relation to the company in relation to the year of income.

50E(2)   [Divisible amount in relation to a relevant period]  

For the purposes of the application of subparagraph 50B(4)(a)(ii) in relation to a relevant period in relation to a company in relation to a year of income -

(i) the assessable income of the company of the year of income includes a divisible amount in respect of an insurance recovery received by the company in the year of income, being an insurance recovery to which section 26B applies;

(ii) the amount is included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income otherwise than under subsection (6) or (7) of that section; and

(iii) the insurance recovery was received by the company before the commencement of, or during, the relevant period,
so much of that divisible amount as bears to that divisible amount the same proportion as the number of whole days (if any) in the relevant period, being whole days occurring after the time when the insurance recovery was received, bears to the number of whole days in the year of income, being whole days occurring after the time when the insurance recovery was received, shall be deemed to be included in the assessable income of the company of the relevant period;


(b) where a divisible amount is included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under subsection 26B(6) or (7) , so much of that divisible amount as bears to that divisible amount the same proportion as the number of whole days (if any) in the relevant period bears to 365 shall be deemed to be included in the assessable income of the company of the relevant period;


(c) where -


(i) a divisible amount is included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under paragraph 26BA(6)(b) by reason that an election was made by the company in relation to the shearing of sheep that, by reason of fire, drought or flood, took place at a time earlier than the time at which, but for that fire, drought or flood, that shearing would ordinarily have taken place; and

(ii) that shearing would ordinarily have taken place during the relevant period,

(e) where a divisible amount is included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under paragraph 36(3A)(b) , so much of that divisible amount as bears to that divisible amount the same proportion as the number of whole days (if any) in the relevant period bears to 365 shall be deemed to be included in the assessable income of the company of the relevant period;


(f) where a divisible amount is included in the assessable income of the company of the year of income under paragraph 36AAA(2)(c) or (d) or (2A)(g) or (h), so much of that divisible amount as bears to that divisible amount the same proportion as the number of whole days (if any) in the relevant period bears to 365 shall be deemed to be included in the assessable income of the company of the relevant period;
