Subject to subsection (3), for the purposes of determining a deduction allowable to, or an amount included in the assessable income of, the transition taxpayer after the transition time in respect of the satisfaction of a liability owed by the transition taxpayer immediately before the transition time, the transition taxpayer is taken:


(a) to have ceased immediately before the transition time to have any liabilities; and

57-30(2)    
The adjusted market value of the corresponding right or other asset is the market value of that right or asset at the transition time:


(a) reduced by any amount paid or that becomes payable by the transition taxpayer in respect of the liability at or after the transition time, where:


(i) because of subsection 57-20(2) ; or

(ii) because all of the transition taxpayer ' s income was wholly exempt from income tax before the transition time;
the amount is not an allowable deduction; and


(b) increased by any amount paid or that became payable by the transition taxpayer in respect of the liability before the transition time, where:


(i) because of subsection 57-20(1) ; or
