The third element of an entity ' s reduced cost base for its interest in a *CGT asset of a partnership is the entity ' s share of:

(a) any amounts worked out under whichever of the following subparagraphs applies:

(i) if Division 58 does not apply to the asset - any amount included in the assessable income of the partnership for any income year because of a balancing adjustment for the asset;

(ii) if Division 58 applies to the asset and an amount has been included in the assessable income of the partnership for an income year because of a balancing adjustment for the asset - any part of that amount that was attributable to amounts that the partnership has deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the asset; and

(b) any amount that would have been so included apart from any of these (which provide relief from including a balancing charge in your assessable income):

(i) section 40-365 ; or

(ii) any of these former sections - section 42-285 , 42-290 or 42-293 ; or

calculated according to the entity ' s share in the partnership net income or net loss.

110-60(2)    
Expenditure does not form part of an entity ' s reduced cost base for its interest in a *CGT asset of a partnership to the extent that a partnership in which the entity is or was a partner has deducted or can deduct it (including because of a balancing adjustment), or could have deducted it apart from paragraph 43-70(2)(h) .

110-60(3)    

Expenditure does not form part of an entity ' s reduced cost base for its interest in a *CGT asset of a partnership to the extent that a partnership in which the entity is or was a partner could have deducted an amount for the asset if it had used it wholly for the *purpose of producing assessable income.

110-60(4)    
Expenditure does not form part of an entity ' s reduced cost base for its interest in a *CGT asset of a partnership to the extent of any amounts that a partnership in which the entity is or was a partner has received as *recoupment of it and that are not included in the assessable income of the partnership.

110-60(4A)    

Expenditure does not form part of an entity ' s reduced cost base for its interest in a *CGT asset of a partnership to the extent that the entity chose a *tax offset for the expenditure under the former section 388-55 (about the landcare and water facility tax offset) instead of deducting it.

(Repealed by No 23 of 2005)

110-60(7)    

The reduced cost base of an entity ' s interest in a *CGT asset of a partnership is to be reduced by the entity ' s share of any amount that the partnership has deducted or can deduct, or could have deducted except for Subdivision 170-D , as a result of a *CGT event that happens in relation to the asset. However, a reduction is not to be made for an amount that relates to a cost that could never have formed part of the reduced cost base or is excluded from the reduced cost base as a result of another provision of this section.
