Operative provisions
SECTION 815-105 Object 815-105(1)
The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that the amount brought to tax in Australia from cross-border conditions between entities is not less than it would be if those conditions reflected:
(a) the arm ' s length contribution made by Australian operations through functions performed, assets used and risks assumed; and
(b) the conditions that might be expected to operate between entities dealing at *arm ' s length.
815-105(2)
The Subdivision does this by specifying that, where an entity would otherwise get a tax advantage from actual conditions that differ from *arm ' s length conditions, the arm ' s length conditions are taken to operate for income tax and withholding tax purposes.
