Draft Taxation Determination TD 2007/D20 considered the application of the transfer pricing provisions under Division 13 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (ITAA 1936) and the thin capitalisation provisions under Division 820 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 when an entity does not have excess debt.
