## Subdivision 59 ‑N—Native title benefits
## 59‑50 Indigenous holding entities 59‑50 Indigenous holding entities
Without limiting subsection 59‑50(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, an entity was an Indigenous holding entity at a time if:
(b) at that time, the entity was endorsed under Subdivision 50‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as exempt from income tax because the entity was covered by item 1.1, 1.5, 1.5A or 1.5B of the table in section 50‑5 of that Act, as in force at that time.
## Part 2 ‑20—Tax offsets
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to a depreciating asset (the real asset);
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.

(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or

(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.

(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.
(b) it acquired the asset as a result of a disposal (for the purposes of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for which there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZN or 160ZZO of that Act; and
(ii) an entity that was a trustee of a trust that was not a resident trust estate, or a resident unit trust, for the purposes of that Act.

(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and
(d) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of that Act.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment made before the commencement of this section at any time in the period of 4 years starting at that commencement for the purpose of giving effect to this Division.
Subdivision 165‑CA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies applying net capital losses of earlier income years) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
Subdivision 165‑CB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies working out the net capital gain and the net capital loss for the income year of the change) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
A choice under section 165‑115E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an unrealised net loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:
(i) Subdivision 275‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and any other provision of that Act or of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) had applied in relation to the CGT event;

Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).

(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:

(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and

(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:

(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.

(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

```
(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(c) that effect was partly due to the amount described in an item of the table being worked out for that entity directly or indirectly by reference to a provision of that Division specified in the item; and

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

## Part 2 ‑25—Trading stock
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or

(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.

(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or

(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.

(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.
(b) it acquired the asset as a result of a disposal (for the purposes of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for which there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZN or 160ZZO of that Act; and
(ii) an entity that was a trustee of a trust that was not a resident trust estate, or a resident unit trust, for the purposes of that Act.

(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and
(d) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of that Act.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment made before the commencement of this section at any time in the period of 4 years starting at that commencement for the purpose of giving effect to this Division.
Subdivision 165‑CA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies applying net capital losses of earlier income years) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
Subdivision 165‑CB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies working out the net capital gain and the net capital loss for the income year of the change) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
A choice under section 165‑115E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an unrealised net loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:
(i) Subdivision 275‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and any other provision of that Act or of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) had applied in relation to the CGT event;

Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).

(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:

(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and

(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:

(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.

(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

```
(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(c) that effect was partly due to the amount described in an item of the table being worked out for that entity directly or indirectly by reference to a provision of that Division specified in the item; and

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

## 70‑10 Accounting for your disposal of it 70‑10 Accounting for your disposal of items that stop being trading stock because of the change of definition
(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
## 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of th 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
## 70‑55 Cost of live stock acquired by nat 70‑55 Cost of live stock acquired by natural increase
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
## 70‑70 Valuing interests in FIFs on hand 70‑70 Valuing interests in FIFs on hand at the start of 1991‑92
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
## 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
## 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
## 70‑105 Application of section 70‑105 of 70‑105 Application of section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to deaths on or after 1 July 1997
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
## 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
## Part 2 ‑40—Rules affecting employees and other taxpayers receiving PAYG withholding payments
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:

(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or

(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.

(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:

(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(i) replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; and
(ii) increasing the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.

(1) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or 104‑240(1) of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event occurring for:
(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

(1) A low‑value pool you created under Subdivision 42‑M of the former Act continues under the new Act as if it had been created under Subdivision 40‑E of the new Act.
(2) For the purposes of working out the decline in value of depreciating assets in such a pool for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs, step 3 of the method statement in subsection 40‑440(1) of the new Act applies to the pool closing balance, worked out under section 42‑470 of the former Act, for the income year before that year.
For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you cannot allocate a depreciating asset to a low‑value pool if:

(i) for a water facility—the amount of capital expenditure you incurred on the construction, manufacture, installation or acquisition of the water facility; or
(ii) for a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of capital expenditure incurred that is attributable to the establishment of the plant or grapevine; and
(c) amounts that have been deducted or can be deducted for the qualifying amount under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are taken to be a decline in value under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act applies to the water facility on the basis specified in subsection 40‑515(2) of this Act, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
The reference in subsection 40‑555(1) of the new Act to a person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act for expenditure on a water facility includes a reference to the person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount for it under:
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on:
(2) You deduct amounts for the qualifying amount under Subdivision 40‑G of the new Act in the same way you were writing it off under Division 387 of the former Act.

(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that deductions for project amounts in relation to that project would be worked out under section 40‑832 of that Act;
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and
(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(1) For disposals of plant or interests in plant on or after 22 February 1999 and before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, Division 45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies with the modifications specified in this section.
(b) the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant or, if you disposed of an interest in the plant, so much of those amounts as is attributable to that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or
(b) that part of the amounts the partnership has deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant that has been or would be reflected in your interest in the partnership net income or partnership loss (your partnership amount) or, if you disposed of part of your interest in the plant, so much of your partnership amount as is attributable to that part of that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
Former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not apply to any of the following acts if it is done on or after 1 July 2002:
(b) lodging an application with the Commissioner for a determination of an estimated debit in substitution for an earlier determination;
(c) a determination by the Commissioner of an estimated debit (including a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(1) A superannuation provider that has been given a transitional release authority in accordance with section 292‑80B must pay to the person within 30 days after receiving the release authority the least of the following amounts:
(a) if the person requests the provider in writing to pay a specified amount in relation to the release authority—that amount;
(c) the sum of the values of every superannuation interest (other than a defined benefit interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
> Note 1: Section 288‑95 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides for an administrative penalty for failing to comply with this subsection.
> Note 2: Section 288‑100 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides that the person giving the release authority to the superannuation provider can be liable to an administrative penalty if excess amounts are paid in relation to the release authority.
> Note 3: For reporting obligations on the superannuation provider in these circumstances, see section 390‑65 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(2) The payment must be made out of one or more superannuation interests (other than a defined benefits interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
(3) Section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the proportioning rule) does not apply to a payment made as required under this section.
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2015‑2016 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsection 292‑85(7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 applies after the commencement of this section as if:
(d) subsection 292‑85(6) of that Act as so amended had been applied (taking into account paragraph (c) of this subsection) for the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year.
(2) For the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions caps for the 2017‑2018 financial year and the 2018‑2019 financial year, if:
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsections 292‑85(6) and (7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 apply after the commencement of this section as if the amount worked out under subsection 292‑85(5) of that Act as so amended were $380,000.
(3) To avoid doubt, this section does not affect your non‑concessional contributions cap for any financial year that ended before 1 July 2017.
The tax free component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) made in a financial year on behalf of you is not included in your non‑concessional contributions (see section 292‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the financial year.
(2) Subject to section 294‑55, the amendments of Division 294 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2017 Measures No. 2) Act 2017 apply on and after 1 July 2017.
Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:
(a) the only transfer balance credits in the account in that period arose under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act (which is about superannuation income streams you have just before 1 July 2017); and
(b) the sum of those transfer balance credits exceeds your transfer balance cap, but is less than or equal to $1,700,000; and
(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;
(2) For the purposes of this section, an asset is taken to have been listed on an Australian stock exchange on 30 June 1988 if, and only if, on that day the asset had the status of having been granted official quotation by a securities exchange within the meaning of the former Securities Industry Act 1980 or the law of a State or Territory corresponding to that former Act.
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(4) The payment referred to in subsection (2) or (3) can include giving property. To the extent that the payment does, use the market value of the property in working out the amount of the payment.
(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate current balance is the total amount deposited with the fund (together with accumulated earnings), as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.
> continuously complying fixed interest ADF, in relation to an income year (the current year), means a fund that is a fixed interest complying ADF in relation to each of the following years:
> current 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor as at the reckoning time, is the balance as at that time determined by varying the original 25 May balance, in accordance with the following rules, during the period from 26 May 1988 to the reckoning time:
(b) subject to paragraph (a), an amount deposited with the ADF by the depositor before 1 September 1989 is to be added to the balance;

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

(6) This section does not apply to an ADF in relation to an income year unless the whole of the benefit that would accrue to the ADF from the application of this section in relation to the income year has been, or can reasonably expected to be, passed on to eligible depositors.
An election made by the trustee of a complying superannuation fund under subsection 279(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 that had effect for the income year of the fund in which 30 June 2007 occurs continues to have effect as if it had been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(b) the amendments of the Income Tax Assessment (1997 Act) Regulations 2021 made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023.
(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) if the Commissioner may amend the assessment in accordance with item 5 (fraud or evasion) or 6 (review or appeal) of the table in subsection 170(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
(b) if the amendment is made for the purpose of giving effect to a provision specified in the regulations for the purposes of this paragraph.
(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) that:
(a) relate to the amendments or repeals made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023; and
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:
(a) a spouse of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008 or a person who was formerly such a spouse; or
(b) a child of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008, who is aged less than 18.
(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and
(b) Subdivision 305‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the paying fund (see section 305‑55 of that Act); and
(c) the paying fund transfers an amount to a complying superannuation fund in respect of you during the deduction year; and
(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).
(2) Despite subsection 307‑125(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, work out the tax free component of superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation income stream in an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2007 as follows:
(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).
(i) an eligible termination payment had been made in respect of the holder of the interest just before the time mentioned in subsection (5); and
(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:

(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).

(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
## 82‑10B Lower cap amount 82‑10B Lower cap amount
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.

Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
## 82‑10C Recipient under preservation age 82‑10C Recipient under preservation age

(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
## 82‑10D Upper cap amount 82‑10D Upper cap amount
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.

(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).

(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and

(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and

(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
## 83A‑15 Indeterminate rights 83A‑15 Indeterminate rights
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.

## Part 3 ‑1—Capital gains and losses: general topics
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(4) For the purposes of item 2 in the table in subsection (3), an entity is treated as if it is not carrying on a business in relation to the activities of a partnership in which the entity is a partner unless the entity is connected with the partnership.
(5) A lease of plant referred to in item 3 of the table in subsection (3) is an agreement (including a renewal of an agreement) under which the holder of the plant grants a right to use the plant to another entity, but not a hire purchase agreement or a short‑term hire agreement.
(a) for the diminishing value method—replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; or
(i) replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; and
(ii) increasing the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).

(b) if the entity did not carry on a business in each of the current year and the 2 years before the current year, the number of those income years in which the entity carried on a business.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).
(c) that part of the value of the business supplies the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies it made during the year to entities connected with it when they were connected with it; and
(d) that part of the value of the business supplies entities connected with the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies the connected entities made during the year to the primary entity when they were connected with it; and
(e) that part of the value of the business supplies another entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies the other entity made to a third entity at a time when both the other entity and third entity were connected with the primary entity.
(a) for taxable supplies (if any) the entity makes during the year in the course of carrying on a business—the value (as defined by section 9‑75 of the GST Act) of the supplies; and
(b) for other supplies the entity makes during the year in the course of carrying on a business—the prices (as defined by section 9‑75 of the GST Act) of the supplies.
(1) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or 104‑240(1) of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event occurring for:
(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(iv) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and subparagraph (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor; or
(a) a balancing adjustment event occurred for plant in the circumstances mentioned in subsection 42‑293(2) of the former Act before 1 July 2001; and
(1) A low‑value pool you created under Subdivision 42‑M of the former Act continues under the new Act as if it had been created under Subdivision 40‑E of the new Act.
(2) For the purposes of working out the decline in value of depreciating assets in such a pool for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs, step 3 of the method statement in subsection 40‑440(1) of the new Act applies to the pool closing balance, worked out under section 42‑470 of the former Act, for the income year before that year.
For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you cannot allocate a depreciating asset to a low‑value pool if:
Subsection 40‑450(2) of the new Act has effect as if the reference to expenditure being allocated to a software development pool included a reference to expenditure being allocated to a software pool under Division 46 of the former Act.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on any of these (the primary production asset):
and you would have been able to deduct amounts for the qualifying amount for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs under the former Act if it had continued to apply.
(i) for a water facility—the amount of capital expenditure you incurred on the construction, manufacture, installation or acquisition of the water facility; or
(ii) for a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of capital expenditure incurred that is attributable to the establishment of the plant or grapevine; and
(c) amounts that have been deducted or can be deducted for the qualifying amount under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are taken to be a decline in value under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and

```
(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:

Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.

(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

Subdivision 166‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about listed public companies deducting bad debts) applies to assessments for the 1998‑1999 income year and later income years.
(ii) that could have been deducted, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the deduction had not been limited by the company’s income for that income year; and
(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.

(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.

(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.
> Note: This exempting debit will partly or fully offset the exempting credit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;
use the adjusted loan rate (as described in subsection 247‑80(4)) applicable at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of that method statement was incurred, in any income year, while the capital protected borrowing is at that fixed rate.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) a variable rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;
use the average of the adjusted loan rates (as described in subsection 247‑80(4)) applicable during those parts of the income year when the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate.
Section 253‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to amounts paid or applied before, on or after the commencement of that section to meet entitlements arising under Division 2AA of Part II of the Banking Act 1959 after 17 October 2008.
(a) the trustee of a managed investment trust makes a choice under section 275‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 covering the trust that is in force for the 2008‑09 income year; and
(b) the Commissioner made an assessment (the previous assessment) for a previous income year for any of the following entities:
(ii) a gain or loss was realised for income tax purposes because of the circumstances that gave rise to the CGT event; and
(i) the gain or loss should be reflected in the net income of the managed investment trust for that previous income year; or
(ii) the gain or loss should be reflected in a tax loss or net capital loss of the managed investment trust for that previous income year; and
(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:

the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:

(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or

(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.

(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.

(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2020 announcement time and on or before 30 June 2021; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2020 announcement time and on or before 30 June 2021.
(5) Paragraph 328‑180(2)(a) or (3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(5A) For the purposes of determining whether, under subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you can deduct, for an income year (the current year), the taxable purpose proportion of an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection if:
(2) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the cost of the asset) if, in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023, you:
(3) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (a) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the amount) if the amount is included in the second element of the cost of the asset at any time in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023.
(4) In applying paragraph 328‑180(3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an asset, disregard an amount included in the second element of the cost of the asset if the amount is deducted under subsection 328‑180(2) of that Act, as modified by subsection (3) of this section.
(5) Section 328‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the words “less than $1,000 but” in subsection (1) were disregarded, in relation to a deduction for an income year that ends:
Subsection 328‑190(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that subsection to 15% were a reference to 57.5% if you are covered by section 40‑125 for the asset (which is about backing business investment).
(1) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your general STS pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(2) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your long life STS pool is treated as being allocated to your long life small business pool.
(3) If you made a choice, under subsection 328‑185(5) of old Subdivision 328‑D, not to have a depreciating asset allocated to your long life STS pool, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 328‑185(5) of new Subdivision 328‑D.
(1) This section applies if a depreciating asset of yours is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool or long life small business pool under section 328‑185.
(2) The opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool for the 2007‑08 income year is taken to be the closing pool balance of your general STS pool or long life STS pool, as the case requires, for the 2006‑07 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of new Subdivision 328‑D (about change in the business use of an asset).
(a) you were not an STS taxpayer for the 2006‑07 income year (because you stopped being an STS taxpayer before that time); but
(b) you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 income year or a later income year and you choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets for that income year;
the opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool includes the sum of the taxable purpose proportions of the adjustable values of depreciating assets allocated to the pool under subsection 328‑185(3) of new Subdivision 328‑D for that year.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of applying Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 2012‑13 income year and later income years.
(2) A depreciating asset that had been allocated to your long life small business pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(a) the closing pool balance of your general small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of that Act; and
(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.
> Note: Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply to depreciating assets that have been allocated to your small business pools even if you are not a small business entity, or do not choose to use that Subdivision, for an income year: see section 328‑220 of that Subdivision.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct 20% of particular expenditure for your 2023‑24 income year if:
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(d) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C (about what is a small business entity) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(ii) if the provider is a registered body of a kind listed in paragraph (2)(b), (c) or (d)—the training is within the provider’s scope of registration for that kind of registered body; and
(d) each enrolment, or arrangement, for the provision of the training is made or entered into at or after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 29 March 2022; and
> Note: Paragraphs (b) and (c) mean this section will not apply to expenditure for on‑the‑job training or training provided by you in house.
(a) a registered higher education provider (within the meaning of the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency Act 2011);
(b) a NVR registered training organisation (within the meaning of the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator Act 2011);
(c) a registered education and training organisation (within the meaning of the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic.));
(a) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(1) applies; and
(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct for your 2023‑24 income year an amount that is equal to the sum of:
(a) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(1) applies; and
(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑460 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (3), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(b) you incur the expenditure in the period starting at 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 29 March 2022 and ending at the end of:
(c) you can deduct the amount of the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑455 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure was incurred; and
(d) you incur the expenditure wholly or substantially for the purposes of your digital operations or digitising your operations; and
(f) if the expenditure is on a depreciating asset—the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period referred to in paragraph (b) when you hold the asset occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the asset is not in‑house software allocated to a software development pool for the income year in which you incur the expenditure;
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (3), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct the amount of the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑455 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure was incurred; and
(d) you incur the expenditure wholly or substantially for the purposes of your digital operations or digitising your operations; and
(f) if the expenditure is on a depreciating asset—the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period referred to in paragraph (b) when you hold the asset occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the asset is not in‑house software allocated to a software development pool for the income year in which you incur the expenditure;
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
(4) For the purposes of paragraphs (1)(c) and (2)(c), in working out whether you can deduct an amount of expenditure on a depreciating asset, assume that:
(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and
> Note: The deduction relates to the period of 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2024. An entity may have deducted an amount under paragraph (a) for a previous income year if the entity has a substituted accounting period.
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑470 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Sections 8‑10, 40‑215 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(b) you can deduct the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑465 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(c) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose after 30 June 2023 but before 1 July 2024; and
(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.
(a) the amount is included in the second element of a depreciating asset’s cost under paragraph 40‑190(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) you can deduct the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑465 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(d) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(i) if the asset could use a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental)—the asset to only use electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source;
(ii) if the asset uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source—the asset to be more energy efficient;
(g) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and

(5) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b) or (3)(b), in working out whether you can deduct an amount of expenditure assume that:
(i) for the purposes of paragraph (1)(b)—to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; or
(ii) for the purposes of paragraph (3)(b)—to the same extent as you use it for a taxable purpose in the income year in which the expenditure is incurred.
(b) expenditure (other than expenditure referred to in subparagraph (3)(e)(i)) on an asset that can use a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental);
(c) an asset that solely or predominantly generates electricity from a renewable source (for example, photovoltaic cells) or expenditure on such an asset;
(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D entity could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.
> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

```
if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2) of this section.
(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and
(i) the partner can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.
> Note 1: This section applies even if the partner is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

```
if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the partner’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑525(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partner’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if one or more partners (including the partner) in the R&D partnership is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset, the partner is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑448 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the partner is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑467 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s deductions under section 355‑520 of the new Act mentioned in subsection (4A) of this section.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2) of this section.
(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the partner for the event, do so apply to the partner for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑525 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partner had new law deductions.
Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

```
(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:

(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.

(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
## 102‑15 Applying net capital losses 102‑15 Applying net capital losses
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.

(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and

(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:

(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).

If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and

> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:

(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.
(b) it acquired the asset as a result of a disposal (for the purposes of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for which there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZN or 160ZZO of that Act; and
(ii) an entity that was a trustee of a trust that was not a resident trust estate, or a resident unit trust, for the purposes of that Act.

(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and
(d) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of that Act.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment made before the commencement of this section at any time in the period of 4 years starting at that commencement for the purpose of giving effect to this Division.
Subdivision 165‑CA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies applying net capital losses of earlier income years) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
Subdivision 165‑CB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies working out the net capital gain and the net capital loss for the income year of the change) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
A choice under section 165‑115E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an unrealised net loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:
(i) Subdivision 275‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and any other provision of that Act or of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) had applied in relation to the CGT event;

Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).

(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:

(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and

(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:

(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.

(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

```
(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(c) that effect was partly due to the amount described in an item of the table being worked out for that entity directly or indirectly by reference to a provision of that Division specified in the item; and

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.

(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:

> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or

(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.

(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or

(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to a depreciating asset (the real asset);
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and

(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:

(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.

(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.

(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:

(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).

(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;

If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:

(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and

(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:

(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and

(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

```
(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.

(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from an original surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:

> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
294‑120 Superannuation funds using the proportionate method—disregard initial capital gain but recognise deferred notional gain
294‑125 Pooled superannuation trust using proportionate or alternative exemption method—deemed sale and purchase of CGT asset
294‑130 Pooled superannuation trusts using proportionate or alternative exemption method—disregard initial capital gain but recognise deferred notional gain
> The object of this Subdivision is to provide temporary relief from certain capital gains that might arise as a result of individuals complying with the following legislative changes:

(b) the exclusion of transition to retirement income streams (and similar income streams) from being superannuation income streams in the retirement phase (as a result of Schedule 8 to that Act).
(a) starting on the start of the day on which the Bill that became the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 was introduced into the House of Representatives; and
(a) at the start of the pre‑commencement period, a CGT asset of a fund is a segregated current pension asset of the fund; and

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:

(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.

(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:
(a) the sum of the transfer balance credits (if any) in your transfer balance account just after the start of 1 July 2017; less
(b) the sum of the transfer balance debits (if any) arising in your transfer balance account on 1 July 2017 under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of that Act (about payment splits).
(1) Section 307‑231 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to borrowings that arise under contracts entered into on or after 1 July 2018.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2018 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2018 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).
Division 316 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to demutualisations occurring on or after 1 July 2008.
If:
(a) any assets held by the benefit funds of a life insurance company that is a friendly society for the purpose of providing superannuation benefits to its members are transferred before 1 July 2001 to a complying superannuation fund; and
(b) the persons who had interests in those assets immediately before the transfer had substantially the same interests in the assets after the transfer;
the transfer is disregarded for any purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out the amount that a life insurance company can deduct, in respect of life insurance policies that are disability policies (other than continuous disability policies) under subsection 320‑85(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which 1 July 2000 occurs, the value of the company’s liabilities under the net risk components of the policies at the end of the previous income year is taken to be the value of the liabilities as at the end of 30 June 2000 relating to those policies that was used by the company for the purposes of its return of income.
(2) In working out the amount that a life insurance company can deduct, in respect of life insurance policies (other than policies to which subsection (1) applies) under subsection 320‑85(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which 1 July 2000 occurs, the value of the company’s liabilities under the net risk components of the policies at the end of the previous income year is taken to be the value of the company’s liabilities as at the end of 30 June 2000 under the net risk components relating to those policies as calculated under subsection 320‑85(4) of that Act.
If:
(2) If the life insurance company wishes to include a part of an approved asset in its virtual PST before 1 October 2000, the company must, before that date, certify in writing the part (if any) of the asset to be included in the virtual PST.
(3) If the life insurance company so certifies, the part of the asset stated in the certificate is to be treated as a separate asset of the company.
(d) if the transfer occurs before 1 October 2000—the transfer is to be disregarded for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(e) if the transfer occurs on or after 1 October 2000—the transfer is to be disregarded for the purposes of that Act, except:
> Note: This means, amongst other things, that a life insurance company to which this subsection applies will not be able to claim a deduction in respect of the transfer under subsection 320‑87(2) of that Act.
(1A) If subsection (1) has applied to a life insurance company in respect of a transfer of assets to meet a liability or a part of a liability, that subsection does not apply again in respect of another transfer of assets to meet that liability or that part of the liability.
(2) If a life insurance company that is a friendly society establishes a virtual PST in the 2000‑01 income year, the calculation of the transfer values of the company’s virtual PST assets as at the end of that income year is to be made not later than 90 days after the end of that income year.
(1) Subsection (3) applies for the purposes of subparagraph (b)(i) of the definition of virtual PST life insurance policy in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as in force just after the commencement of item 259 of Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Legislation Amendment (Simplification) Act 2007.

#### 328‑110 Working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 or 2008‑09 income year—turnover for earlier income years
(1) This section applies for the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity (other than because of subsection 328‑110(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the 2007‑08 or 2008‑09 income year.
(2) You work out your aggregated turnover for the 2005‑06 or 2006‑07 income year as if the amendments made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had been in force in relation to that year.
(a) your aggregated turnover for the 2005‑06 income year (worked out in accordance with subsection (2)) is $2 million or more; but
(b) your STS group turnover for that year (worked out under Subdivision 328‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) is less than $2 million.
(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:
(2) An entity (the first entity) controls a discretionary trust for a relevant income year if, for any of the 4 income years (a previous income year) before that year:
(a) if the previous income year is before the 2007‑08 income year—the trustee of the trust made a distribution of $100,000 or more to the first entity, any of its affiliates, or the first entity and any of its affiliates; or
(i) the trustee of the trust paid to, or applied for the benefit of, the first entity, any of the first entity’s affiliates, or the first entity and any of its affiliates, any of the income or capital of the trust; and
(ii) the percentage (the control percentage) of the income or capital paid or applied is at least 40% of the total amount of income or capital paid or applied by the trustee for that year.
(1) This section sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:
(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:
(3) Any ordinary income that, apart from paragraph 328‑105(1)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before its repeal by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2004 Measures No. 7) Act 2005), you would have derived before the changeover year (while you were using the STS accounting method) and you have not included in your assessable income because you have not received it is included in your assessable income for the changeover year.
(4) Any general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, that, apart from paragraph 328‑105(1)(b) of that Act (as in force immediately before its repeal by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2004 Measures No. 7) Act 2005), you would have incurred before the changeover year (while you were using the STS accounting method) and that you have not deducted because you have not paid them can be deducted for the changeover year.
(b) for any later income year for which you are a small business entity but only if you used the STS accounting method for the income year before that later year.
> Note: Example: You are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 and 2008‑09 income years and you continue to use the STS accounting method for those years. You are not a small business entity for the 2009‑10 income year so you cannot continue to use the STS accounting method for that year. Because you cannot use the STS accounting method for the 2009‑10 income year, you will not be able to use it again for a later income year even if you are a small business entity for that later year.
In sections 328‑115 and 328‑120, STS accounting method means the accounting method that was required by the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be used by STS taxpayers for the 2004‑05 income year.
(b) you made a choice under subsection 328‑175(3) of old Subdivision 328‑D in relation to a depreciating asset you use to carry on a primary production business and for which you could deduct amounts under Subdivision 40‑F or 40‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) In determining whether you can choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in an increased access year, disregard subsection 328‑175(10) of that Act.
(3) In applying paragraph 328‑175(10)(b) of that Act for the purpose of determining whether you can choose to use that Subdivision in any income year after the increased access years, disregard:
(4) Paragraph 328‑180(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2015 budget time and before the 2019 application time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2015 budget time and before the 2019 application time; or
(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 application time and before the 2019 budget time; or

(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 budget time and before the 2020 announcement time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 budget time and before the 2020 announcement time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, on or after 1 July 2023 and on or before 30 June 2026.

(5) Paragraph 328‑180(2)(a) or (3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(5A) For the purposes of determining whether, under subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you can deduct, for an income year (the current year), the taxable purpose proportion of an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection if:
(2) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the cost of the asset) if, in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023, you:
(3) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (a) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the amount) if the amount is included in the second element of the cost of the asset at any time in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023.
(4) In applying paragraph 328‑180(3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an asset, disregard an amount included in the second element of the cost of the asset if the amount is deducted under subsection 328‑180(2) of that Act, as modified by subsection (3) of this section.
(5) Section 328‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the words “less than $1,000 but” in subsection (1) were disregarded, in relation to a deduction for an income year that ends:
Subsection 328‑190(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that subsection to 15% were a reference to 57.5% if you are covered by section 40‑125 for the asset (which is about backing business investment).
(1) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your general STS pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(2) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your long life STS pool is treated as being allocated to your long life small business pool.
(3) If you made a choice, under subsection 328‑185(5) of old Subdivision 328‑D, not to have a depreciating asset allocated to your long life STS pool, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 328‑185(5) of new Subdivision 328‑D.
(1) This section applies if a depreciating asset of yours is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool or long life small business pool under section 328‑185.
(2) The opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool for the 2007‑08 income year is taken to be the closing pool balance of your general STS pool or long life STS pool, as the case requires, for the 2006‑07 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of new Subdivision 328‑D (about change in the business use of an asset).
(a) you were not an STS taxpayer for the 2006‑07 income year (because you stopped being an STS taxpayer before that time); but
(b) you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 income year or a later income year and you choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets for that income year;
the opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool includes the sum of the taxable purpose proportions of the adjustable values of depreciating assets allocated to the pool under subsection 328‑185(3) of new Subdivision 328‑D for that year.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of applying Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 2012‑13 income year and later income years.
(2) A depreciating asset that had been allocated to your long life small business pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(a) the closing pool balance of your general small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of that Act; and
(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.
> Note: Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply to depreciating assets that have been allocated to your small business pools even if you are not a small business entity, or do not choose to use that Subdivision, for an income year: see section 328‑220 of that Subdivision.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct for your 2023‑24 income year an amount that is equal to the sum of:

(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.

(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.

(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

```
(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

## Division 152 Small business relief
## 152‑5 Small business roll‑over chosen bu 152‑5 Small business roll‑over chosen but no capital gain returned
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
## 152‑10 Small business roll‑over not chos 152‑10 Small business roll‑over not chosen and time remains to acquire a replacement asset
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and

(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.

## Part 3 ‑5—Corporate taxpayers and corporate distributions
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to a depreciating asset (the real asset);
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and

(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:

(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:

> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:

(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.

(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).

(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).

(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.

(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.

(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;

If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.

(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and

(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.

(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:

(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.

(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

```
(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.

(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from an original surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:

> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
294‑120 Superannuation funds using the proportionate method—disregard initial capital gain but recognise deferred notional gain
294‑125 Pooled superannuation trust using proportionate or alternative exemption method—deemed sale and purchase of CGT asset
294‑130 Pooled superannuation trusts using proportionate or alternative exemption method—disregard initial capital gain but recognise deferred notional gain
> The object of this Subdivision is to provide temporary relief from certain capital gains that might arise as a result of individuals complying with the following legislative changes:

(b) the exclusion of transition to retirement income streams (and similar income streams) from being superannuation income streams in the retirement phase (as a result of Schedule 8 to that Act).
(a) starting on the start of the day on which the Bill that became the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 was introduced into the House of Representatives; and
(a) at the start of the pre‑commencement period, a CGT asset of a fund is a segregated current pension asset of the fund; and

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:

(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.

(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:
(a) the sum of the transfer balance credits (if any) in your transfer balance account just after the start of 1 July 2017; less
(b) the sum of the transfer balance debits (if any) arising in your transfer balance account on 1 July 2017 under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of that Act (about payment splits).
(1) Section 307‑231 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to borrowings that arise under contracts entered into on or after 1 July 2018.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2018 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2018 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).
Division 316 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to demutualisations occurring on or after 1 July 2008.
If:
(a) any assets held by the benefit funds of a life insurance company that is a friendly society for the purpose of providing superannuation benefits to its members are transferred before 1 July 2001 to a complying superannuation fund; and
(b) the persons who had interests in those assets immediately before the transfer had substantially the same interests in the assets after the transfer;
the transfer is disregarded for any purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out the amount that a life insurance company can deduct, in respect of life insurance policies that are disability policies (other than continuous disability policies) under subsection 320‑85(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which 1 July 2000 occurs, the value of the company’s liabilities under the net risk components of the policies at the end of the previous income year is taken to be the value of the liabilities as at the end of 30 June 2000 relating to those policies that was used by the company for the purposes of its return of income.
(2) In working out the amount that a life insurance company can deduct, in respect of life insurance policies (other than policies to which subsection (1) applies) under subsection 320‑85(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which 1 July 2000 occurs, the value of the company’s liabilities under the net risk components of the policies at the end of the previous income year is taken to be the value of the company’s liabilities as at the end of 30 June 2000 under the net risk components relating to those policies as calculated under subsection 320‑85(4) of that Act.
If:
(2) If the life insurance company wishes to include a part of an approved asset in its virtual PST before 1 October 2000, the company must, before that date, certify in writing the part (if any) of the asset to be included in the virtual PST.
(3) If the life insurance company so certifies, the part of the asset stated in the certificate is to be treated as a separate asset of the company.
(d) if the transfer occurs before 1 October 2000—the transfer is to be disregarded for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(e) if the transfer occurs on or after 1 October 2000—the transfer is to be disregarded for the purposes of that Act, except:
> Note: This means, amongst other things, that a life insurance company to which this subsection applies will not be able to claim a deduction in respect of the transfer under subsection 320‑87(2) of that Act.
(1A) If subsection (1) has applied to a life insurance company in respect of a transfer of assets to meet a liability or a part of a liability, that subsection does not apply again in respect of another transfer of assets to meet that liability or that part of the liability.
(2) If a life insurance company that is a friendly society establishes a virtual PST in the 2000‑01 income year, the calculation of the transfer values of the company’s virtual PST assets as at the end of that income year is to be made not later than 90 days after the end of that income year.
(1) Subsection (3) applies for the purposes of subparagraph (b)(i) of the definition of virtual PST life insurance policy in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as in force just after the commencement of item 259 of Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Legislation Amendment (Simplification) Act 2007.

#### 328‑110 Working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 or 2008‑09 income year—turnover for earlier income years
(1) This section applies for the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity (other than because of subsection 328‑110(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the 2007‑08 or 2008‑09 income year.
(2) You work out your aggregated turnover for the 2005‑06 or 2006‑07 income year as if the amendments made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had been in force in relation to that year.
(a) your aggregated turnover for the 2005‑06 income year (worked out in accordance with subsection (2)) is $2 million or more; but
(b) your STS group turnover for that year (worked out under Subdivision 328‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) is less than $2 million.
(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:
(2) An entity (the first entity) controls a discretionary trust for a relevant income year if, for any of the 4 income years (a previous income year) before that year:
(a) if the previous income year is before the 2007‑08 income year—the trustee of the trust made a distribution of $100,000 or more to the first entity, any of its affiliates, or the first entity and any of its affiliates; or
(i) the trustee of the trust paid to, or applied for the benefit of, the first entity, any of the first entity’s affiliates, or the first entity and any of its affiliates, any of the income or capital of the trust; and
(ii) the percentage (the control percentage) of the income or capital paid or applied is at least 40% of the total amount of income or capital paid or applied by the trustee for that year.
(1) This section sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:
(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:
(3) Any ordinary income that, apart from paragraph 328‑105(1)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before its repeal by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2004 Measures No. 7) Act 2005), you would have derived before the changeover year (while you were using the STS accounting method) and you have not included in your assessable income because you have not received it is included in your assessable income for the changeover year.
(4) Any general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, that, apart from paragraph 328‑105(1)(b) of that Act (as in force immediately before its repeal by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2004 Measures No. 7) Act 2005), you would have incurred before the changeover year (while you were using the STS accounting method) and that you have not deducted because you have not paid them can be deducted for the changeover year.
(b) for any later income year for which you are a small business entity but only if you used the STS accounting method for the income year before that later year.
> Note: Example: You are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 and 2008‑09 income years and you continue to use the STS accounting method for those years. You are not a small business entity for the 2009‑10 income year so you cannot continue to use the STS accounting method for that year. Because you cannot use the STS accounting method for the 2009‑10 income year, you will not be able to use it again for a later income year even if you are a small business entity for that later year.
In sections 328‑115 and 328‑120, STS accounting method means the accounting method that was required by the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be used by STS taxpayers for the 2004‑05 income year.
(b) you made a choice under subsection 328‑175(3) of old Subdivision 328‑D in relation to a depreciating asset you use to carry on a primary production business and for which you could deduct amounts under Subdivision 40‑F or 40‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) In determining whether you can choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in an increased access year, disregard subsection 328‑175(10) of that Act.
(3) In applying paragraph 328‑175(10)(b) of that Act for the purpose of determining whether you can choose to use that Subdivision in any income year after the increased access years, disregard:
(4) Paragraph 328‑180(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2015 budget time and before the 2019 application time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2015 budget time and before the 2019 application time; or
(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 application time and before the 2019 budget time; or

(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 budget time and before the 2020 announcement time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 budget time and before the 2020 announcement time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, on or after 1 July 2023 and on or before 30 June 2026.

(5) Paragraph 328‑180(2)(a) or (3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(5A) For the purposes of determining whether, under subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you can deduct, for an income year (the current year), the taxable purpose proportion of an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection if:
(2) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the cost of the asset) if, in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023, you:
(3) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (a) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the amount) if the amount is included in the second element of the cost of the asset at any time in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023.
(4) In applying paragraph 328‑180(3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an asset, disregard an amount included in the second element of the cost of the asset if the amount is deducted under subsection 328‑180(2) of that Act, as modified by subsection (3) of this section.
(5) Section 328‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the words “less than $1,000 but” in subsection (1) were disregarded, in relation to a deduction for an income year that ends:
Subsection 328‑190(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that subsection to 15% were a reference to 57.5% if you are covered by section 40‑125 for the asset (which is about backing business investment).
(1) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your general STS pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(2) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your long life STS pool is treated as being allocated to your long life small business pool.
(3) If you made a choice, under subsection 328‑185(5) of old Subdivision 328‑D, not to have a depreciating asset allocated to your long life STS pool, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 328‑185(5) of new Subdivision 328‑D.
(1) This section applies if a depreciating asset of yours is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool or long life small business pool under section 328‑185.
(2) The opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool for the 2007‑08 income year is taken to be the closing pool balance of your general STS pool or long life STS pool, as the case requires, for the 2006‑07 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of new Subdivision 328‑D (about change in the business use of an asset).
(a) you were not an STS taxpayer for the 2006‑07 income year (because you stopped being an STS taxpayer before that time); but
(b) you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 income year or a later income year and you choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets for that income year;
the opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool includes the sum of the taxable purpose proportions of the adjustable values of depreciating assets allocated to the pool under subsection 328‑185(3) of new Subdivision 328‑D for that year.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of applying Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 2012‑13 income year and later income years.
(2) A depreciating asset that had been allocated to your long life small business pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(a) the closing pool balance of your general small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of that Act; and
(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.
> Note: Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply to depreciating assets that have been allocated to your small business pools even if you are not a small business entity, or do not choose to use that Subdivision, for an income year: see section 328‑220 of that Subdivision.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct for your 2023‑24 income year an amount that is equal to the sum of:

(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.

(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.

(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

```
(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.

(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
## 197‑15 Account taken to have ceased to b 197‑15 Account taken to have ceased to be tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.

#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.

## 197‑25 Special provisions if company cho 197‑25 Special provisions if company chooses to untaint after introduction day
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
## Part 3 ‑6—The imputation system
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.

(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(4) For the purposes of item 2 in the table in subsection (3), an entity is treated as if it is not carrying on a business in relation to the activities of a partnership in which the entity is a partner unless the entity is connected with the partnership.
(5) A lease of plant referred to in item 3 of the table in subsection (3) is an agreement (including a renewal of an agreement) under which the holder of the plant grants a right to use the plant to another entity, but not a hire purchase agreement or a short‑term hire agreement.
(a) for the diminishing value method—replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; or
(i) replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; and
(ii) increasing the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).

(b) if the entity did not carry on a business in each of the current year and the 2 years before the current year, the number of those income years in which the entity carried on a business.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).
(c) that part of the value of the business supplies the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies it made during the year to entities connected with it when they were connected with it; and
(d) that part of the value of the business supplies entities connected with the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies the connected entities made during the year to the primary entity when they were connected with it; and
(e) that part of the value of the business supplies another entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies the other entity made to a third entity at a time when both the other entity and third entity were connected with the primary entity.
(a) for taxable supplies (if any) the entity makes during the year in the course of carrying on a business—the value (as defined by section 9‑75 of the GST Act) of the supplies; and
(b) for other supplies the entity makes during the year in the course of carrying on a business—the prices (as defined by section 9‑75 of the GST Act) of the supplies.
(1) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or 104‑240(1) of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event occurring for:
(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

```
(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.

(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:

> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.

(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.
> Note: This exempting debit will partly or fully offset the exempting credit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;
use the adjusted loan rate (as described in subsection 247‑80(4)) applicable at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of that method statement was incurred, in any income year, while the capital protected borrowing is at that fixed rate.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) a variable rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;
use the average of the adjusted loan rates (as described in subsection 247‑80(4)) applicable during those parts of the income year when the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate.
Section 253‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to amounts paid or applied before, on or after the commencement of that section to meet entitlements arising under Division 2AA of Part II of the Banking Act 1959 after 17 October 2008.
(a) the trustee of a managed investment trust makes a choice under section 275‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 covering the trust that is in force for the 2008‑09 income year; and
(b) the Commissioner made an assessment (the previous assessment) for a previous income year for any of the following entities:
(ii) a gain or loss was realised for income tax purposes because of the circumstances that gave rise to the CGT event; and
(i) the gain or loss should be reflected in the net income of the managed investment trust for that previous income year; or

(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:

(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or

(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.

(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.

(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2020 announcement time and on or before 30 June 2021; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2020 announcement time and on or before 30 June 2021.
(5) Paragraph 328‑180(2)(a) or (3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(5A) For the purposes of determining whether, under subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you can deduct, for an income year (the current year), the taxable purpose proportion of an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection if:
(2) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the cost of the asset) if, in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023, you:
(3) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (a) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the amount) if the amount is included in the second element of the cost of the asset at any time in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023.
(4) In applying paragraph 328‑180(3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an asset, disregard an amount included in the second element of the cost of the asset if the amount is deducted under subsection 328‑180(2) of that Act, as modified by subsection (3) of this section.
(5) Section 328‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the words “less than $1,000 but” in subsection (1) were disregarded, in relation to a deduction for an income year that ends:
Subsection 328‑190(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that subsection to 15% were a reference to 57.5% if you are covered by section 40‑125 for the asset (which is about backing business investment).
(1) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your general STS pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(2) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your long life STS pool is treated as being allocated to your long life small business pool.
(3) If you made a choice, under subsection 328‑185(5) of old Subdivision 328‑D, not to have a depreciating asset allocated to your long life STS pool, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 328‑185(5) of new Subdivision 328‑D.
(1) This section applies if a depreciating asset of yours is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool or long life small business pool under section 328‑185.
(2) The opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool for the 2007‑08 income year is taken to be the closing pool balance of your general STS pool or long life STS pool, as the case requires, for the 2006‑07 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of new Subdivision 328‑D (about change in the business use of an asset).
(a) you were not an STS taxpayer for the 2006‑07 income year (because you stopped being an STS taxpayer before that time); but
(b) you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 income year or a later income year and you choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets for that income year;
the opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool includes the sum of the taxable purpose proportions of the adjustable values of depreciating assets allocated to the pool under subsection 328‑185(3) of new Subdivision 328‑D for that year.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of applying Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 2012‑13 income year and later income years.
(2) A depreciating asset that had been allocated to your long life small business pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(a) the closing pool balance of your general small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of that Act; and
(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.
> Note: Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply to depreciating assets that have been allocated to your small business pools even if you are not a small business entity, or do not choose to use that Subdivision, for an income year: see section 328‑220 of that Subdivision.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct 20% of particular expenditure for your 2023‑24 income year if:
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(d) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C (about what is a small business entity) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(ii) if the provider is a registered body of a kind listed in paragraph (2)(b), (c) or (d)—the training is within the provider’s scope of registration for that kind of registered body; and
(d) each enrolment, or arrangement, for the provision of the training is made or entered into at or after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 29 March 2022; and
> Note: Paragraphs (b) and (c) mean this section will not apply to expenditure for on‑the‑job training or training provided by you in house.
(a) a registered higher education provider (within the meaning of the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency Act 2011);
(b) a NVR registered training organisation (within the meaning of the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator Act 2011);
(c) a registered education and training organisation (within the meaning of the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic.));
(a) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(1) applies; and
(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct for your 2023‑24 income year an amount that is equal to the sum of:
(a) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(1) applies; and
(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑460 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (3), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(b) you incur the expenditure in the period starting at 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 29 March 2022 and ending at the end of:
(c) you can deduct the amount of the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑455 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure was incurred; and
(d) you incur the expenditure wholly or substantially for the purposes of your digital operations or digitising your operations; and
(f) if the expenditure is on a depreciating asset—the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period referred to in paragraph (b) when you hold the asset occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the asset is not in‑house software allocated to a software development pool for the income year in which you incur the expenditure;
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (3), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct the amount of the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑455 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure was incurred; and
(d) you incur the expenditure wholly or substantially for the purposes of your digital operations or digitising your operations; and
(f) if the expenditure is on a depreciating asset—the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period referred to in paragraph (b) when you hold the asset occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the asset is not in‑house software allocated to a software development pool for the income year in which you incur the expenditure;
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
(4) For the purposes of paragraphs (1)(c) and (2)(c), in working out whether you can deduct an amount of expenditure on a depreciating asset, assume that:
(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and
> Note: The deduction relates to the period of 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2024. An entity may have deducted an amount under paragraph (a) for a previous income year if the entity has a substituted accounting period.
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑470 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Sections 8‑10, 40‑215 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(b) you can deduct the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑465 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(c) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose after 30 June 2023 but before 1 July 2024; and
(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.
(a) the amount is included in the second element of a depreciating asset’s cost under paragraph 40‑190(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) you can deduct the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑465 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(d) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(i) if the asset could use a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental)—the asset to only use electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source;
(ii) if the asset uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source—the asset to be more energy efficient;
(g) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and

(5) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b) or (3)(b), in working out whether you can deduct an amount of expenditure assume that:
(i) for the purposes of paragraph (1)(b)—to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; or
(ii) for the purposes of paragraph (3)(b)—to the same extent as you use it for a taxable purpose in the income year in which the expenditure is incurred.
(b) expenditure (other than expenditure referred to in subparagraph (3)(e)(i)) on an asset that can use a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental);
(c) an asset that solely or predominantly generates electricity from a renewable source (for example, photovoltaic cells) or expenditure on such an asset;
(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D entity could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.
> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

```
if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2) of this section.
(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and
(i) the partner can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.
> Note 1: This section applies even if the partner is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

```
if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the partner’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑525(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partner’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if one or more partners (including the partner) in the R&D partnership is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset, the partner is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑448 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the partner is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑467 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s deductions under section 355‑520 of the new Act mentioned in subsection (4A) of this section.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2) of this section.
(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the partner for the event, do so apply to the partner for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑525 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partner had new law deductions.
Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

```
(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:

727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.

Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.

## Part 3 ‑10—Financial transactions
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to a depreciating asset (the real asset);
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(4) For the purposes of item 2 in the table in subsection (3), an entity is treated as if it is not carrying on a business in relation to the activities of a partnership in which the entity is a partner unless the entity is connected with the partnership.
(5) A lease of plant referred to in item 3 of the table in subsection (3) is an agreement (including a renewal of an agreement) under which the holder of the plant grants a right to use the plant to another entity, but not a hire purchase agreement or a short‑term hire agreement.

```
(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.

Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset.

You make adjustments to the cost base and reduced cost base of shares under Division 140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to schemes where the decrease in market value and increase in market value occur after 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and

(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.

(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.

(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

#### 205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from an original surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(4) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking deficit of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original deficit):
(a) a franking credit equal to the deficit is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the 1997 Act for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.
> Note: This exempting debit will partly or fully offset the exempting credit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

```
(a) the start of the period is not immediately after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997; and
(b) the franking surplus in the Australian company’s franking account at the switch time is not greater than the franking surplus in the Australian company’s franking account at the start of the period.
Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.

(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.

(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and

(1) This section applies for the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity (other than because of subsection 328‑110(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the 2007‑08 or 2008‑09 income year.
(2) You work out your aggregated turnover for the 2005‑06 or 2006‑07 income year as if the amendments made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had been in force in relation to that year.
(a) your aggregated turnover for the 2005‑06 income year (worked out in accordance with subsection (2)) is $2 million or more; but
(b) your STS group turnover for that year (worked out under Subdivision 328‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) is less than $2 million.
(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:
(2) An entity (the first entity) controls a discretionary trust for a relevant income year if, for any of the 4 income years (a previous income year) before that year:
(a) if the previous income year is before the 2007‑08 income year—the trustee of the trust made a distribution of $100,000 or more to the first entity, any of its affiliates, or the first entity and any of its affiliates; or
(i) the trustee of the trust paid to, or applied for the benefit of, the first entity, any of the first entity’s affiliates, or the first entity and any of its affiliates, any of the income or capital of the trust; and
(ii) the percentage (the control percentage) of the income or capital paid or applied is at least 40% of the total amount of income or capital paid or applied by the trustee for that year.
(1) This section sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:
(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:
(3) Any ordinary income that, apart from paragraph 328‑105(1)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before its repeal by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2004 Measures No. 7) Act 2005), you would have derived before the changeover year (while you were using the STS accounting method) and you have not included in your assessable income because you have not received it is included in your assessable income for the changeover year.
(4) Any general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, that, apart from paragraph 328‑105(1)(b) of that Act (as in force immediately before its repeal by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2004 Measures No. 7) Act 2005), you would have incurred before the changeover year (while you were using the STS accounting method) and that you have not deducted because you have not paid them can be deducted for the changeover year.
(b) for any later income year for which you are a small business entity but only if you used the STS accounting method for the income year before that later year.
> Note: Example: You are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 and 2008‑09 income years and you continue to use the STS accounting method for those years. You are not a small business entity for the 2009‑10 income year so you cannot continue to use the STS accounting method for that year. Because you cannot use the STS accounting method for the 2009‑10 income year, you will not be able to use it again for a later income year even if you are a small business entity for that later year.
In sections 328‑115 and 328‑120, STS accounting method means the accounting method that was required by the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be used by STS taxpayers for the 2004‑05 income year.
(b) you made a choice under subsection 328‑175(3) of old Subdivision 328‑D in relation to a depreciating asset you use to carry on a primary production business and for which you could deduct amounts under Subdivision 40‑F or 40‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) In determining whether you can choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in an increased access year, disregard subsection 328‑175(10) of that Act.
(3) In applying paragraph 328‑175(10)(b) of that Act for the purpose of determining whether you can choose to use that Subdivision in any income year after the increased access years, disregard:
(4) Paragraph 328‑180(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2015 budget time and before the 2019 application time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2015 budget time and before the 2019 application time; or
(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 application time and before the 2019 budget time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 application time and before the 2019 budget time; or
(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 budget time and before the 2020 announcement time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2019 budget time and before the 2020 announcement time; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, on or after 1 July 2023 and on or before 30 June 2026.
(a) a reference in that paragraph to the end of the income year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose were a reference to the earlier of:

(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2020 announcement time and on or before 30 June 2021.
(5) Paragraph 328‑180(2)(a) or (3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(5A) For the purposes of determining whether, under subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you can deduct, for an income year (the current year), the taxable purpose proportion of an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection if:
(2) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the cost of the asset) if, in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023, you:
(3) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (a) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the amount) if the amount is included in the second element of the cost of the asset at any time in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023.
(4) In applying paragraph 328‑180(3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an asset, disregard an amount included in the second element of the cost of the asset if the amount is deducted under subsection 328‑180(2) of that Act, as modified by subsection (3) of this section.
(5) Section 328‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the words “less than $1,000 but” in subsection (1) were disregarded, in relation to a deduction for an income year that ends:
Subsection 328‑190(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that subsection to 15% were a reference to 57.5% if you are covered by section 40‑125 for the asset (which is about backing business investment).
(1) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your general STS pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(2) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your long life STS pool is treated as being allocated to your long life small business pool.
(3) If you made a choice, under subsection 328‑185(5) of old Subdivision 328‑D, not to have a depreciating asset allocated to your long life STS pool, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 328‑185(5) of new Subdivision 328‑D.
(1) This section applies if a depreciating asset of yours is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool or long life small business pool under section 328‑185.
(2) The opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool for the 2007‑08 income year is taken to be the closing pool balance of your general STS pool or long life STS pool, as the case requires, for the 2006‑07 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of new Subdivision 328‑D (about change in the business use of an asset).
(a) you were not an STS taxpayer for the 2006‑07 income year (because you stopped being an STS taxpayer before that time); but
(b) you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 income year or a later income year and you choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets for that income year;
the opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool includes the sum of the taxable purpose proportions of the adjustable values of depreciating assets allocated to the pool under subsection 328‑185(3) of new Subdivision 328‑D for that year.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of applying Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 2012‑13 income year and later income years.
(2) A depreciating asset that had been allocated to your long life small business pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(a) the closing pool balance of your general small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of that Act; and
(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.
> Note: Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply to depreciating assets that have been allocated to your small business pools even if you are not a small business entity, or do not choose to use that Subdivision, for an income year: see section 328‑220 of that Subdivision.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct 20% of particular expenditure for your 2023‑24 income year if:
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and

(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(ii) if the provider is a registered body of a kind listed in paragraph (2)(b), (c) or (d)—the training is within the provider’s scope of registration for that kind of registered body; and

(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct for your 2023‑24 income year an amount that is equal to the sum of:
(a) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(1) applies; and
(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑460 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(4) For the purposes of paragraphs (1)(c) and (2)(c), in working out whether you can deduct an amount of expenditure on a depreciating asset, assume that:
(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:

(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2) of this section.
(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and
(i) the partner can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.
> Note 1: This section applies even if the partner is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the partner’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑525(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partner’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if one or more partners (including the partner) in the R&D partnership is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset, the partner is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑448 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the partner is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑467 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the partner for the event, do so apply to the partner for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑525 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partner had new law deductions.
Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

## Subdivision 247 ‑A—Interim apportionment methodology
## 247‑5 Interim apportionment methodology 247‑5 Interim apportionment methodology
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
## 247‑10 Products listed on the Australian 247‑10 Products listed on the Australian Stock Exchange that have explicit put options
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
## 247‑15 Other capital protected products 247‑15 Other capital protected products
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
## 247‑20 The indicator method 247‑20 The indicator method
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.

(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.

Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.

## Part 3 ‑25—Particular kinds of trusts
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and

(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act applies to the water facility on the basis specified in subsection 40‑515(2) of this Act, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
The reference in subsection 40‑555(1) of the new Act to a person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act for expenditure on a water facility includes a reference to the person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount for it under:

(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) that part of the amounts the partnership has deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant that has been or would be reflected in your interest in the partnership net income or partnership loss (your partnership amount) or, if you disposed of part of your interest in the plant, so much of your partnership amount as is attributable to that part of that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
Former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not apply to any of the following acts if it is done on or after 1 July 2002:
(b) lodging an application with the Commissioner for a determination of an estimated debit in substitution for an earlier determination;
(c) a determination by the Commissioner of an estimated debit (including a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(1) A superannuation provider that has been given a transitional release authority in accordance with section 292‑80B must pay to the person within 30 days after receiving the release authority the least of the following amounts:
(a) if the person requests the provider in writing to pay a specified amount in relation to the release authority—that amount;
(c) the sum of the values of every superannuation interest (other than a defined benefit interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
> Note 1: Section 288‑95 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides for an administrative penalty for failing to comply with this subsection.
> Note 2: Section 288‑100 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides that the person giving the release authority to the superannuation provider can be liable to an administrative penalty if excess amounts are paid in relation to the release authority.
> Note 3: For reporting obligations on the superannuation provider in these circumstances, see section 390‑65 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(2) The payment must be made out of one or more superannuation interests (other than a defined benefits interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
(3) Section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the proportioning rule) does not apply to a payment made as required under this section.
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2015‑2016 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsection 292‑85(7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 applies after the commencement of this section as if:
(d) subsection 292‑85(6) of that Act as so amended had been applied (taking into account paragraph (c) of this subsection) for the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year.
(2) For the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions caps for the 2017‑2018 financial year and the 2018‑2019 financial year, if:
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsections 292‑85(6) and (7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 apply after the commencement of this section as if the amount worked out under subsection 292‑85(5) of that Act as so amended were $380,000.
(3) To avoid doubt, this section does not affect your non‑concessional contributions cap for any financial year that ended before 1 July 2017.
The tax free component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) made in a financial year on behalf of you is not included in your non‑concessional contributions (see section 292‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the financial year.
(2) Subject to section 294‑55, the amendments of Division 294 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2017 Measures No. 2) Act 2017 apply on and after 1 July 2017.
Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:
(a) the only transfer balance credits in the account in that period arose under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act (which is about superannuation income streams you have just before 1 July 2017); and
(b) the sum of those transfer balance credits exceeds your transfer balance cap, but is less than or equal to $1,700,000; and
(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;
(2) For the purposes of this section, an asset is taken to have been listed on an Australian stock exchange on 30 June 1988 if, and only if, on that day the asset had the status of having been granted official quotation by a securities exchange within the meaning of the former Securities Industry Act 1980 or the law of a State or Territory corresponding to that former Act.
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(4) The payment referred to in subsection (2) or (3) can include giving property. To the extent that the payment does, use the market value of the property in working out the amount of the payment.
(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate current balance is the total amount deposited with the fund (together with accumulated earnings), as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.
> continuously complying fixed interest ADF, in relation to an income year (the current year), means a fund that is a fixed interest complying ADF in relation to each of the following years:
> current 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor as at the reckoning time, is the balance as at that time determined by varying the original 25 May balance, in accordance with the following rules, during the period from 26 May 1988 to the reckoning time:
(b) subject to paragraph (a), an amount deposited with the ADF by the depositor before 1 September 1989 is to be added to the balance;

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

(6) This section does not apply to an ADF in relation to an income year unless the whole of the benefit that would accrue to the ADF from the application of this section in relation to the income year has been, or can reasonably expected to be, passed on to eligible depositors.
An election made by the trustee of a complying superannuation fund under subsection 279(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 that had effect for the income year of the fund in which 30 June 2007 occurs continues to have effect as if it had been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(b) the amendments of the Income Tax Assessment (1997 Act) Regulations 2021 made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023.
(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) if the Commissioner may amend the assessment in accordance with item 5 (fraud or evasion) or 6 (review or appeal) of the table in subsection 170(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
(b) if the amendment is made for the purpose of giving effect to a provision specified in the regulations for the purposes of this paragraph.
(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) that:
(a) relate to the amendments or repeals made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023; and
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:
(a) a spouse of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008 or a person who was formerly such a spouse; or
(b) a child of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008, who is aged less than 18.
(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and
(b) Subdivision 305‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the paying fund (see section 305‑55 of that Act); and
(c) the paying fund transfers an amount to a complying superannuation fund in respect of you during the deduction year; and
(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).
(2) Despite subsection 307‑125(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, work out the tax free component of superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation income stream in an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2007 as follows:
(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).
(i) an eligible termination payment had been made in respect of the holder of the interest just before the time mentioned in subsection (5); and
(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:

(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.

(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and

(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.
(b) it acquired the asset as a result of a disposal (for the purposes of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for which there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZN or 160ZZO of that Act; and
(ii) an entity that was a trustee of a trust that was not a resident trust estate, or a resident unit trust, for the purposes of that Act.

(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and
(d) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of that Act.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment made before the commencement of this section at any time in the period of 4 years starting at that commencement for the purpose of giving effect to this Division.
Subdivision 165‑CA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies applying net capital losses of earlier income years) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
Subdivision 165‑CB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies working out the net capital gain and the net capital loss for the income year of the change) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
A choice under section 165‑115E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an unrealised net loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:
(i) Subdivision 275‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and any other provision of that Act or of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) had applied in relation to the CGT event;

Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).

(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:

(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and

(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:

(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.

(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

```
(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(c) that effect was partly due to the amount described in an item of the table being worked out for that entity directly or indirectly by reference to a provision of that Division specified in the item; and

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.

(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and

(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:

(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or

(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.

(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:

the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.

(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act applies to the water facility on the basis specified in subsection 40‑515(2) of this Act, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
The reference in subsection 40‑555(1) of the new Act to a person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act for expenditure on a water facility includes a reference to the person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount for it under:

(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that deductions for project amounts in relation to that project would be worked out under section 40‑832 of that Act;
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and
(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) that part of the amounts the partnership has deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant that has been or would be reflected in your interest in the partnership net income or partnership loss (your partnership amount) or, if you disposed of part of your interest in the plant, so much of your partnership amount as is attributable to that part of that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
Former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not apply to any of the following acts if it is done on or after 1 July 2002:
(b) lodging an application with the Commissioner for a determination of an estimated debit in substitution for an earlier determination;
(c) a determination by the Commissioner of an estimated debit (including a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(1) A superannuation provider that has been given a transitional release authority in accordance with section 292‑80B must pay to the person within 30 days after receiving the release authority the least of the following amounts:
(a) if the person requests the provider in writing to pay a specified amount in relation to the release authority—that amount;
(c) the sum of the values of every superannuation interest (other than a defined benefit interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
> Note 1: Section 288‑95 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides for an administrative penalty for failing to comply with this subsection.
> Note 2: Section 288‑100 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides that the person giving the release authority to the superannuation provider can be liable to an administrative penalty if excess amounts are paid in relation to the release authority.
> Note 3: For reporting obligations on the superannuation provider in these circumstances, see section 390‑65 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(2) The payment must be made out of one or more superannuation interests (other than a defined benefits interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
(3) Section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the proportioning rule) does not apply to a payment made as required under this section.
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2015‑2016 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsection 292‑85(7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 applies after the commencement of this section as if:
(d) subsection 292‑85(6) of that Act as so amended had been applied (taking into account paragraph (c) of this subsection) for the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year.
(2) For the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions caps for the 2017‑2018 financial year and the 2018‑2019 financial year, if:
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsections 292‑85(6) and (7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 apply after the commencement of this section as if the amount worked out under subsection 292‑85(5) of that Act as so amended were $380,000.
(3) To avoid doubt, this section does not affect your non‑concessional contributions cap for any financial year that ended before 1 July 2017.
The tax free component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) made in a financial year on behalf of you is not included in your non‑concessional contributions (see section 292‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the financial year.
(2) Subject to section 294‑55, the amendments of Division 294 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2017 Measures No. 2) Act 2017 apply on and after 1 July 2017.
Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:
(a) the only transfer balance credits in the account in that period arose under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act (which is about superannuation income streams you have just before 1 July 2017); and
(b) the sum of those transfer balance credits exceeds your transfer balance cap, but is less than or equal to $1,700,000; and
(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;
(2) For the purposes of this section, an asset is taken to have been listed on an Australian stock exchange on 30 June 1988 if, and only if, on that day the asset had the status of having been granted official quotation by a securities exchange within the meaning of the former Securities Industry Act 1980 or the law of a State or Territory corresponding to that former Act.
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(4) The payment referred to in subsection (2) or (3) can include giving property. To the extent that the payment does, use the market value of the property in working out the amount of the payment.
(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate current balance is the total amount deposited with the fund (together with accumulated earnings), as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.
> continuously complying fixed interest ADF, in relation to an income year (the current year), means a fund that is a fixed interest complying ADF in relation to each of the following years:
> current 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor as at the reckoning time, is the balance as at that time determined by varying the original 25 May balance, in accordance with the following rules, during the period from 26 May 1988 to the reckoning time:
(b) subject to paragraph (a), an amount deposited with the ADF by the depositor before 1 September 1989 is to be added to the balance;

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

(6) This section does not apply to an ADF in relation to an income year unless the whole of the benefit that would accrue to the ADF from the application of this section in relation to the income year has been, or can reasonably expected to be, passed on to eligible depositors.
An election made by the trustee of a complying superannuation fund under subsection 279(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 that had effect for the income year of the fund in which 30 June 2007 occurs continues to have effect as if it had been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(b) the amendments of the Income Tax Assessment (1997 Act) Regulations 2021 made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023.
(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) if the Commissioner may amend the assessment in accordance with item 5 (fraud or evasion) or 6 (review or appeal) of the table in subsection 170(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
(b) if the amendment is made for the purpose of giving effect to a provision specified in the regulations for the purposes of this paragraph.
(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) that:
(a) relate to the amendments or repeals made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023; and
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:
(a) a spouse of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008 or a person who was formerly such a spouse; or
(b) a child of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008, who is aged less than 18.
(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and
(b) Subdivision 305‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the paying fund (see section 305‑55 of that Act); and
(c) the paying fund transfers an amount to a complying superannuation fund in respect of you during the deduction year; and
(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).
(2) Despite subsection 307‑125(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, work out the tax free component of superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation income stream in an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2007 as follows:
(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).
(i) an eligible termination payment had been made in respect of the holder of the interest just before the time mentioned in subsection (5); and
(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:

(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.
## Division 316 Demutualisation of friendly society health or life insurers
## Subdivision 316 ‑A—Application
## 316‑1 Application of Division 316 of the 316‑1 Application of Division 316 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
Division 316 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to demutualisations occurring on or after 1 July 2008.
## Part 3 ‑35—Insurance business
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.

(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or

(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and

(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and

(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.

(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or

(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.

(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:

(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or

(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:

(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.

(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(i) replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; and
(ii) increasing the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.

(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.

(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and
(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
Former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not apply to any of the following acts if it is done on or after 1 July 2002:
(b) lodging an application with the Commissioner for a determination of an estimated debit in substitution for an earlier determination;
(c) a determination by the Commissioner of an estimated debit (including a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(1) A superannuation provider that has been given a transitional release authority in accordance with section 292‑80B must pay to the person within 30 days after receiving the release authority the least of the following amounts:
(a) if the person requests the provider in writing to pay a specified amount in relation to the release authority—that amount;
(c) the sum of the values of every superannuation interest (other than a defined benefit interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
> Note 1: Section 288‑95 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides for an administrative penalty for failing to comply with this subsection.
> Note 2: Section 288‑100 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides that the person giving the release authority to the superannuation provider can be liable to an administrative penalty if excess amounts are paid in relation to the release authority.
> Note 3: For reporting obligations on the superannuation provider in these circumstances, see section 390‑65 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(2) The payment must be made out of one or more superannuation interests (other than a defined benefits interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
(3) Section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the proportioning rule) does not apply to a payment made as required under this section.
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2015‑2016 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsection 292‑85(7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 applies after the commencement of this section as if:
(d) subsection 292‑85(6) of that Act as so amended had been applied (taking into account paragraph (c) of this subsection) for the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year.
(2) For the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions caps for the 2017‑2018 financial year and the 2018‑2019 financial year, if:
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsections 292‑85(6) and (7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 apply after the commencement of this section as if the amount worked out under subsection 292‑85(5) of that Act as so amended were $380,000.
(3) To avoid doubt, this section does not affect your non‑concessional contributions cap for any financial year that ended before 1 July 2017.
The tax free component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) made in a financial year on behalf of you is not included in your non‑concessional contributions (see section 292‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the financial year.
(2) Subject to section 294‑55, the amendments of Division 294 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2017 Measures No. 2) Act 2017 apply on and after 1 July 2017.
Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:
(a) the only transfer balance credits in the account in that period arose under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act (which is about superannuation income streams you have just before 1 July 2017); and
(b) the sum of those transfer balance credits exceeds your transfer balance cap, but is less than or equal to $1,700,000; and
(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;
(2) For the purposes of this section, an asset is taken to have been listed on an Australian stock exchange on 30 June 1988 if, and only if, on that day the asset had the status of having been granted official quotation by a securities exchange within the meaning of the former Securities Industry Act 1980 or the law of a State or Territory corresponding to that former Act.
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(4) The payment referred to in subsection (2) or (3) can include giving property. To the extent that the payment does, use the market value of the property in working out the amount of the payment.
(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate current balance is the total amount deposited with the fund (together with accumulated earnings), as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.
> continuously complying fixed interest ADF, in relation to an income year (the current year), means a fund that is a fixed interest complying ADF in relation to each of the following years:
> current 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor as at the reckoning time, is the balance as at that time determined by varying the original 25 May balance, in accordance with the following rules, during the period from 26 May 1988 to the reckoning time:
(b) subject to paragraph (a), an amount deposited with the ADF by the depositor before 1 September 1989 is to be added to the balance;

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

(6) This section does not apply to an ADF in relation to an income year unless the whole of the benefit that would accrue to the ADF from the application of this section in relation to the income year has been, or can reasonably expected to be, passed on to eligible depositors.
An election made by the trustee of a complying superannuation fund under subsection 279(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 that had effect for the income year of the fund in which 30 June 2007 occurs continues to have effect as if it had been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(b) the amendments of the Income Tax Assessment (1997 Act) Regulations 2021 made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023.
(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) if the Commissioner may amend the assessment in accordance with item 5 (fraud or evasion) or 6 (review or appeal) of the table in subsection 170(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
(b) if the amendment is made for the purpose of giving effect to a provision specified in the regulations for the purposes of this paragraph.
(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) that:
(a) relate to the amendments or repeals made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023; and
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:
(a) a spouse of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008 or a person who was formerly such a spouse; or
(b) a child of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008, who is aged less than 18.
(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and
(b) Subdivision 305‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the paying fund (see section 305‑55 of that Act); and
(c) the paying fund transfers an amount to a complying superannuation fund in respect of you during the deduction year; and
(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).
(2) Despite subsection 307‑125(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, work out the tax free component of superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation income stream in an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2007 as follows:
(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).
(i) an eligible termination payment had been made in respect of the holder of the interest just before the time mentioned in subsection (5); and
(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:

(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.
## Division 320 Life insurance companies
## Operative provisions Operative provisions
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.

(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.

(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:

(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or

(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.

(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.

(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.

(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act applies to the water facility on the basis specified in subsection 40‑515(2) of this Act, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
The reference in subsection 40‑555(1) of the new Act to a person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act for expenditure on a water facility includes a reference to the person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount for it under:

(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that deductions for project amounts in relation to that project would be worked out under section 40‑832 of that Act;
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and
(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) that part of the amounts the partnership has deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant that has been or would be reflected in your interest in the partnership net income or partnership loss (your partnership amount) or, if you disposed of part of your interest in the plant, so much of your partnership amount as is attributable to that part of that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
Former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not apply to any of the following acts if it is done on or after 1 July 2002:
(b) lodging an application with the Commissioner for a determination of an estimated debit in substitution for an earlier determination;
(c) a determination by the Commissioner of an estimated debit (including a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(1) A superannuation provider that has been given a transitional release authority in accordance with section 292‑80B must pay to the person within 30 days after receiving the release authority the least of the following amounts:
(a) if the person requests the provider in writing to pay a specified amount in relation to the release authority—that amount;
(c) the sum of the values of every superannuation interest (other than a defined benefit interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
> Note 1: Section 288‑95 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides for an administrative penalty for failing to comply with this subsection.
> Note 2: Section 288‑100 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides that the person giving the release authority to the superannuation provider can be liable to an administrative penalty if excess amounts are paid in relation to the release authority.
> Note 3: For reporting obligations on the superannuation provider in these circumstances, see section 390‑65 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(2) The payment must be made out of one or more superannuation interests (other than a defined benefits interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
(3) Section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the proportioning rule) does not apply to a payment made as required under this section.
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2015‑2016 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsection 292‑85(7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 applies after the commencement of this section as if:
(d) subsection 292‑85(6) of that Act as so amended had been applied (taking into account paragraph (c) of this subsection) for the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year.
(2) For the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions caps for the 2017‑2018 financial year and the 2018‑2019 financial year, if:
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsections 292‑85(6) and (7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 apply after the commencement of this section as if the amount worked out under subsection 292‑85(5) of that Act as so amended were $380,000.
(3) To avoid doubt, this section does not affect your non‑concessional contributions cap for any financial year that ended before 1 July 2017.
The tax free component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) made in a financial year on behalf of you is not included in your non‑concessional contributions (see section 292‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the financial year.
(2) Subject to section 294‑55, the amendments of Division 294 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2017 Measures No. 2) Act 2017 apply on and after 1 July 2017.
Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:
(a) the only transfer balance credits in the account in that period arose under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act (which is about superannuation income streams you have just before 1 July 2017); and
(b) the sum of those transfer balance credits exceeds your transfer balance cap, but is less than or equal to $1,700,000; and
(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;
(2) For the purposes of this section, an asset is taken to have been listed on an Australian stock exchange on 30 June 1988 if, and only if, on that day the asset had the status of having been granted official quotation by a securities exchange within the meaning of the former Securities Industry Act 1980 or the law of a State or Territory corresponding to that former Act.
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(4) The payment referred to in subsection (2) or (3) can include giving property. To the extent that the payment does, use the market value of the property in working out the amount of the payment.
(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate current balance is the total amount deposited with the fund (together with accumulated earnings), as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.
> continuously complying fixed interest ADF, in relation to an income year (the current year), means a fund that is a fixed interest complying ADF in relation to each of the following years:
> current 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor as at the reckoning time, is the balance as at that time determined by varying the original 25 May balance, in accordance with the following rules, during the period from 26 May 1988 to the reckoning time:
(b) subject to paragraph (a), an amount deposited with the ADF by the depositor before 1 September 1989 is to be added to the balance;

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

(6) This section does not apply to an ADF in relation to an income year unless the whole of the benefit that would accrue to the ADF from the application of this section in relation to the income year has been, or can reasonably expected to be, passed on to eligible depositors.
An election made by the trustee of a complying superannuation fund under subsection 279(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 that had effect for the income year of the fund in which 30 June 2007 occurs continues to have effect as if it had been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(b) the amendments of the Income Tax Assessment (1997 Act) Regulations 2021 made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023.
(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) if the Commissioner may amend the assessment in accordance with item 5 (fraud or evasion) or 6 (review or appeal) of the table in subsection 170(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
(b) if the amendment is made for the purpose of giving effect to a provision specified in the regulations for the purposes of this paragraph.
(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) that:
(a) relate to the amendments or repeals made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023; and
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:
(a) a spouse of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008 or a person who was formerly such a spouse; or
(b) a child of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008, who is aged less than 18.
(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and
(b) Subdivision 305‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the paying fund (see section 305‑55 of that Act); and
(c) the paying fund transfers an amount to a complying superannuation fund in respect of you during the deduction year; and
(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).
(2) Despite subsection 307‑125(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, work out the tax free component of superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation income stream in an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2007 as follows:
(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).
(i) an eligible termination payment had been made in respect of the holder of the interest just before the time mentioned in subsection (5); and
(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:

(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and

(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.
(b) it acquired the asset as a result of a disposal (for the purposes of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for which there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZN or 160ZZO of that Act; and
(ii) an entity that was a trustee of a trust that was not a resident trust estate, or a resident unit trust, for the purposes of that Act.

(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and
(d) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of that Act.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment made before the commencement of this section at any time in the period of 4 years starting at that commencement for the purpose of giving effect to this Division.
Subdivision 165‑CA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies applying net capital losses of earlier income years) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
Subdivision 165‑CB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies working out the net capital gain and the net capital loss for the income year of the change) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
A choice under section 165‑115E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an unrealised net loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:
(i) Subdivision 275‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and any other provision of that Act or of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) had applied in relation to the CGT event;

Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).

(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:

(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and

(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:

(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.

(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

```
(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(c) that effect was partly due to the amount described in an item of the table being worked out for that entity directly or indirectly by reference to a provision of that Division specified in the item; and

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.

## Part 3 ‑50—Climate change
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to a depreciating asset (the real asset);
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or

(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and

(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.

(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.

(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and

(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:

(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.

(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.
(b) it acquired the asset as a result of a disposal (for the purposes of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for which there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZN or 160ZZO of that Act; and
(ii) an entity that was a trustee of a trust that was not a resident trust estate, or a resident unit trust, for the purposes of that Act.

(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and
(d) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of that Act.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment made before the commencement of this section at any time in the period of 4 years starting at that commencement for the purpose of giving effect to this Division.
Subdivision 165‑CA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies applying net capital losses of earlier income years) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
Subdivision 165‑CB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies working out the net capital gain and the net capital loss for the income year of the change) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
A choice under section 165‑115E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an unrealised net loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:
(i) Subdivision 275‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and any other provision of that Act or of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) had applied in relation to the CGT event;

Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).

(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:

(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and

(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:

(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.

(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

```
(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(c) that effect was partly due to the amount described in an item of the table being worked out for that entity directly or indirectly by reference to a provision of that Division specified in the item; and

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.
## Division 420 Registered emissions units
## Subdivision 420 ‑A—General application provision
## 420‑1 Application of Division 420 of the 420‑1 Application of Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
## Part 3 ‑80—Roll‑overs applying to assets generally
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to a depreciating asset (the real asset);
(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (4) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.

(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or

(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.

(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

> total ineligible proceeds is the total of the ineligible proceeds (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) in relation to all of the original licences that have an ineligible part.
(a) if the new licence is an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)—the 2002 value assigned under the ASGE program to the new licence; or
(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(5) If the originating company acquired the original asset before 20 September 1985, the recipient company is taken to have acquired the original asset or the replacement asset before that day.
A reference in an Act to a roll‑over under Subdivision 126‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 includes a reference to a roll‑over under this Subdivision.
(a) CGT event J1 may happen if the recipient company stops being a 100% subsidiary of a member of a company group after a roll‑over under this Subdivision; and
The rule in item 3 in the table in subsection 128‑15(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about a dwelling that was your main residence just before you died and was not being used for the purpose of producing assessable income) does not apply to a dwelling that devolved to your legal personal representative, or passed to a beneficiary in your estate, on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996.
(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.
(2) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company after 15 August 1989 and before the start of the 1993‑94 income year) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares in the company because you were a shareholder of another company, only if the companies were members of the same wholly‑owned group for the whole of the income year in which the issue occurred.
(3) The modification in item 3 of the table in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies also to your exercise of rights (that you acquired before 20 September 1985) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in a company.
(1) The modification in item 1 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares or units in a unit trust you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is a traditional security) that you acquired after 10 May 1989 and before 16 August 1989. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares or units is the sum of:
(2) The modification in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑60(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to shares you acquire by converting a convertible note (that is not a traditional security) that you acquired before 20 September 1985 where you paid or gave something in relation to the conversion. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the shares is the sum of:
(3) Subsection 130‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the acquisition of shares by the conversion of a convertible note that you acquired before 20 September 1985 if you did not pay or give anything in relation to the conversion. Instead, you are taken to have acquired them when you acquired the convertible note.
(1) The modification in item 1 in the table in subsection 134‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to an option (that was granted before 20 September 1985 and exercised after that day) that binds the grantor to create (including grant or issue) or dispose of a CGT asset. Instead, the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the CGT asset acquired by the grantee by exercising the option includes the market value of the option when it was exercised.
(b) it acquired the asset as a result of a disposal (for the purposes of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for which there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZN or 160ZZO of that Act; and
(ii) an entity that was a trustee of a trust that was not a resident trust estate, or a resident unit trust, for the purposes of that Act.

(a) the company concerned buys back the shares after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 9 May 1995; and
(b) the buy back is not done under an arrangement that is an excluded transitional arrangement within the meaning of subitem 12(2) of Schedule 1 of the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No 1) 1996.
(c) the entity was taken to have acquired on a day (the acquisition day) on or after 20 September 1985 under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset on the acquisition day is the amount for which the entity is taken to have acquired it under Division 20 of former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you chose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or under former Division 123 of that Act) for a capital gain you made for an income year from a CGT event that happened in relation to a CGT asset before the commencement of this section; and
(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
(a) you made a capital gain for an income year from a CGT event that happened before the commencement of this section; and
(c) at the commencement of this section, you have not acquired a replacement asset but the replacement asset period had not expired; and
(d) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of that Act.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the replacement asset period but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.
(4) However, if you do not acquire a replacement asset within the replacement asset period, that Act applies to you as if you had never chosen the roll‑over, and the capital gain is not disregarded.
Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment made before the commencement of this section at any time in the period of 4 years starting at that commencement for the purpose of giving effect to this Division.
Subdivision 165‑CA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies applying net capital losses of earlier income years) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
Subdivision 165‑CB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about companies working out the net capital gain and the net capital loss for the income year of the change) applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
A choice under section 165‑115E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an unrealised net loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and
(a) the alteration time mentioned in section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is after 10 November 1999 and before 1 July 2004; and
(b) apart from this section, subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of that Act would require an entity (the notifying entity) to give a notice to another entity (the receiving entity) in relation to the alteration time; and
(c) just before the alteration time, the notifying entity and the receiving entity were both members of the same consolidatable group or potential MEC group.
(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:

#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.

(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:
(i) Subdivision 275‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and any other provision of that Act or of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) had applied in relation to the CGT event;

Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:

(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;

(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).

(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.

(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:

(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and

(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or
(b) section 27AAAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007) applied to the superannuation income stream just before 1 July 2007;
(7) For the purposes of paragraph (6)(c), disregard the value of the interest to the extent that it would consist, apart from this subsection, of the element untaxed in the fund of the taxable component of a superannuation benefit constituted by the eligible termination payment.
(8) If the superannuation income stream has been wholly or partially commuted as mentioned in paragraph (3)(a), treat the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a superannuation benefit arising from the commutation as:
(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of working out the amount of your total superannuation balance just before 1 July 2017.
(2) The transfer balance mentioned in paragraph 307‑230(1)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before 1 July 2017 is taken to be equal to:

(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.
If you have become entitled to a rebate under section 159SA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, your low rate cap amount for the 2007‑2008 income year is, despite subsection 307‑345(1), the total of:
(b) the amount by which $140,000 exceeds the upper limit for the 2006‑2007 income year (worked out under section 159SG of that Act).

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.

(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and

> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

```
(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(c) that effect was partly due to the amount described in an item of the table being worked out for that entity directly or indirectly by reference to a provision of that Division specified in the item; and

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

## Part 3 ‑90—Consolidated groups
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

(i) any of the transport capital expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or

(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (4) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life when you incur the expenditure equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(4) For the purposes of item 2 in the table in subsection (3), an entity is treated as if it is not carrying on a business in relation to the activities of a partnership in which the entity is a partner unless the entity is connected with the partnership.
(5) A lease of plant referred to in item 3 of the table in subsection (3) is an agreement (including a renewal of an agreement) under which the holder of the plant grants a right to use the plant to another entity, but not a hire purchase agreement or a short‑term hire agreement.
(a) for the diminishing value method—replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; or
(i) replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; and
(ii) increasing the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).

(b) if the entity did not carry on a business in each of the current year and the 2 years before the current year, the number of those income years in which the entity carried on a business.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).
(c) that part of the value of the business supplies the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies it made during the year to entities connected with it when they were connected with it; and
(d) that part of the value of the business supplies entities connected with the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies the connected entities made during the year to the primary entity when they were connected with it; and
(e) that part of the value of the business supplies another entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies the other entity made to a third entity at a time when both the other entity and third entity were connected with the primary entity.

(b) for other supplies the entity makes during the year in the course of carrying on a business—the prices (as defined by section 9‑75 of the GST Act) of the supplies.
(1) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or 104‑240(1) of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event occurring for:
(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(iv) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and subparagraph (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor; or
(a) a balancing adjustment event occurred for plant in the circumstances mentioned in subsection 42‑293(2) of the former Act before 1 July 2001; and
(1) A low‑value pool you created under Subdivision 42‑M of the former Act continues under the new Act as if it had been created under Subdivision 40‑E of the new Act.
(2) For the purposes of working out the decline in value of depreciating assets in such a pool for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs, step 3 of the method statement in subsection 40‑440(1) of the new Act applies to the pool closing balance, worked out under section 42‑470 of the former Act, for the income year before that year.
For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you cannot allocate a depreciating asset to a low‑value pool if:
Subsection 40‑450(2) of the new Act has effect as if the reference to expenditure being allocated to a software development pool included a reference to expenditure being allocated to a software pool under Division 46 of the former Act.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on any of these (the primary production asset):
and you would have been able to deduct amounts for the qualifying amount for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs under the former Act if it had continued to apply.
(i) for a water facility—the amount of capital expenditure you incurred on the construction, manufacture, installation or acquisition of the water facility; or
(ii) for a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of capital expenditure incurred that is attributable to the establishment of the plant or grapevine; and
(c) amounts that have been deducted or can be deducted for the qualifying amount under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are taken to be a decline in value under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act applies to the water facility on the basis specified in subsection 40‑515(2) of this Act, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
The reference in subsection 40‑555(1) of the new Act to a person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act for expenditure on a water facility includes a reference to the person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount for it under:
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on:
(2) You deduct amounts for the qualifying amount under Subdivision 40‑G of the new Act in the same way you were writing it off under Division 387 of the former Act.
(3) A reference in subsection 40‑650(4), (5) or (7) of the new Act to an amount being deducted under Subdivision 40‑G of that Act includes a reference to an amount being deducted under:
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on connecting or upgrading the supply of mains electricity to land or a telephone line on land; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑G of the new Act applies to the qualifying amount on the basis specified in that Subdivision, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
A person approved as a farm consultant under Subdivision 387‑A of the former Act is taken to be approved as a farm consultant under section 40‑670 of the new Act.
The exemption provided by section 330‑60 of the former Act continues to apply to ordinary income derived before 20 August 2001.
If:
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that deductions for project amounts in relation to that project would be worked out under section 40‑832 of that Act;
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and

> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:

(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), treat the ownership interest in the dwelling as having been held by you during a time during which the interest was held by:
(a) in relation to sections 118‑195 to 118‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the deceased or the trustee of the deceased estate; or
(a) that acquired an ownership interest in a dwelling as trustee of a deceased estate on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996; or
(2) Item 1 in the table in subsection 118‑195(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the entity in relation to the dwelling as if that item required the dwelling to be the deceased’s main residence throughout the deceased’s ownership period.
Despite section 118‑260 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the business exemption threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
If you were retaining records under former section 160ZZU of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for an asset, you must continue to retain them in accordance with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6A) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year must keep the records referred to in that subsection, and retain them until the end of 30 June 2002.
(2) A superannuation fund to which former subsection 160ZZU(6B) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied just before the start of the 1998‑99 income year in relation to a CGT asset must keep the records referred to in that subsection for the asset, and retain them until the end of 5 years after CGT event A1, B1, C1, C2, G1 or G3 happens in relation to the asset.
(3) Subsection (1) or (2) does not require a fund to retain records if the Commissioner notifies the fund that the retention of the records is not required.
(i) your ownership of one or more statutory licences (each of which is an original licence) ends, resulting in CGT event C2 happening to the licence (or to each of the licences as part of an arrangement); and
(ii) you are issued one or more new licences (each of which is a new licence) for the original licence (or original licences); and
(c) if there was more than one original licence—at least one of the original licences was covered under subsection (2); and
(f) the original licence (or at least one of the original licences) has an ineligible part (as described in section 124‑150 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(a) an aquifer access licence under the Water Management Act 2000 of New South Wales issued in accordance with the New South Wales Achieving Sustainable Groundwater Entitlements program (the ASGE program); or
(1) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the cost base of the ineligible part is the cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked out under the formula:

(2) The regulations may specify one or more ways of working out the value of a licence (other than an aquifer access licence mentioned in paragraph 124‑40(3)(a)) for the purposes of this section.
(3) For an original licence that has an ineligible part, the reduced cost base of the ineligible part is the reduced cost base of the original licence multiplied by the amount worked under the formula set out in subsection (1).
(1) The first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) is the total of the cost bases of the original licences.
> Note: For the purposes of this section, the cost base of each original licence that has an ineligible part is reduced in accordance with subsection 124‑150(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(c) subsection 124‑165(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) (splitting that licence into 2 separate CGT assets).
(4) For the purposes of subsection (2), treat the asset that is taken under paragraph 124‑165(2)(a) of that Act to have been acquired on or after 20 September 1985 as a new licence that is covered under subsection 124‑140(3) of this Act.
(5) Work out the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of that asset in accordance with subsection 124‑165(3) of that Act.
Subdivision 124‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as amended by Schedule 2 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2011 Measures No. 9) Act 2012, applies to CGT events happening after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
Despite the amendment of section 125‑75 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (1) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each ownership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(a) the transferee acquired the asset from another superannuation fund in circumstances to which former section 160ZZPI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied; and
(2) The first element of the cost base of the asset in the hands of the transferee (at the time the transferee acquired the asset) is the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the other fund) at that time.
(a) a CGT event happens because all or part of the life insurance business of a life insurance company (the originating company) is transferred to another life insurance company (the recipient company):
(i) in accordance with a scheme confirmed by the Federal Court of Australia under Part 9 of the Life Insurance Act 1995; or
(b) the originating company and the recipient company were members of the same wholly‑owned group just before the transfer; and
(ii) if the originating company and the recipient company are members of the same consolidated group or consolidatable group and the head company of that group has a substituted accounting period—before the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
(2) The CGT asset involved (the roll‑over asset) must not be trading stock of the recipient company just after the time of the transfer.
(a) the roll‑over asset is a right or convertible interest referred to in Division 130, or an option referred to in Division 134, of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 or an exchangeable interest; and
(b) the recipient company acquires another CGT asset by exercising the right or option or by converting the convertible interest or in exchange for the disposal or redemption of the exchangeable interest;
(2) The first element of the cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is the cost base of the original asset for the originating company just before the time of the CGT event.
(3) The first element of the reduced cost base of the original asset or the replacement asset for the recipient company is worked out similarly.
(4) For a case where the originating company creates a CGT asset in the recipient company, the first element of the asset’s cost base (in the hands of the recipient company) is the amount applicable under this table. The first element of its reduced cost base is worked out similarly.

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them. Instead, you are taken to have acquired the bonus equities when you acquired the original equities.
(1) The modifications in section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to you for rights (issued to you by a company before 16 August 1989) to acquire shares, or options to acquire shares, in that company, only if you were a shareholder of that company.

(c) assuming that you had acquired a replacement asset before the CGT event, you would have been entitled to choose that roll‑over.
(3) If you acquired a replacement asset within the period (the replacement asset period) ending 2 years after the last CGT event in the income year for which you obtained the roll‑over but the total of the first and second elements of the cost base of that asset is less than the amount of the capital gain that would, apart from this subsection, be disregarded, the amount to be disregarded is that total.

(5) Subsections 165‑115ZC(4) and (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the notifying entity if both it and the receiving entity became members of the same consolidated group or MEC group before 1 July 2004.
(6) Even if subsection (5) does not apply, the notifying entity is not required to give the notice to the receiving entity before the end of 6 months after the commencement of this subsection.
(1) This section affects how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an interest (the equity) in, or a debt owed by, a company if apart from this section, a loss (the realised loss):
(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the day on which the entity lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the realisation event occurred;
(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

Subdivision 166‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about listed public companies deducting bad debts) applies to assessments for the 1998‑1999 income year and later income years.
(ii) that could have been deducted, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the deduction had not been limited by the company’s income for that income year; and
(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

> introduction day means the day on which the Bill for the Act that added this Division was introduced into the Parliament.
Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.

If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).

#### 205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.
> Note: This exempting debit will partly or fully offset the exempting credit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
use the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Lending Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate (the personal unsecured loan rate) at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of the method statement in subsection (1) was incurred, in any income year, during the term of the capital protected borrowing or that part of the term.

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;
use the adjusted loan rate (as described in subsection 247‑80(4)) applicable at the first time an amount covered by step 1 of that method statement was incurred, in any income year, while the capital protected borrowing is at that fixed rate.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) a variable rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;
use the average of the adjusted loan rates (as described in subsection 247‑80(4)) applicable during those parts of the income year when the capital protected borrowing is at a variable rate.
Section 253‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to amounts paid or applied before, on or after the commencement of that section to meet entitlements arising under Division 2AA of Part II of the Banking Act 1959 after 17 October 2008.
(a) the trustee of a managed investment trust makes a choice under section 275‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 covering the trust that is in force for the 2008‑09 income year; and
(b) the Commissioner made an assessment (the previous assessment) for a previous income year for any of the following entities:
(ii) a gain or loss was realised for income tax purposes because of the circumstances that gave rise to the CGT event; and
(i) the gain or loss should be reflected in the net income of the managed investment trust for that previous income year; or
(ii) the gain or loss should be reflected in a tax loss or net capital loss of the managed investment trust for that previous income year; and
(f) none of the provisions mentioned in subsection 275‑100(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would have applied at the time of the CGT event in relation to the asset, if these assumptions were made:

the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:

(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).

(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or

(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;
(b) next, work out the unused undeducted purchase price (within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of that term in subsection 27A(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section, and disregarding paragraphs (b) and (c) of that definition) of the superannuation income stream, reduced by the tax free components (worked out under subsection (2)) of any benefits paid from the superannuation income stream after 30 June 2007;
(c) next, work out the pre‑July 83 component (within the meaning of section 27A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before the commencement of this section) of the eligible termination payment.
(a) at least one superannuation income stream benefit was paid from the superannuation income stream before 1 July 1994; or

(b) if 1 or more other events mentioned in subsection (3) happened before the commutation—the time just before the earliest of those events happens.
(a) references in that section to the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that involuntary roll‑over superannuation benefit) include references to the earlier income stream; and
(b) references in that section to the superannuation interest supporting the later income stream (in relation to a time, or event happening, before the payment of that benefit) include references to the earlier interest.

(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) treat a deduction made under former section 279 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead; and
(b) treat a deduction made under former section 279B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as having been made under section 295‑470 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 instead.

(i) first used the asset, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2020 announcement time and on or before 30 June 2021; or
(ii) first installed the asset ready for use, for a taxable purpose, at or after the 2020 announcement time and on or before 30 June 2021.
(5) Paragraph 328‑180(2)(a) or (3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset as if a reference in that paragraph to $1,000:
(5A) For the purposes of determining whether, under subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you can deduct, for an income year (the current year), the taxable purpose proportion of an amount included in the second element of the cost of an asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection if:
(2) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (b) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the cost of the asset) if, in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023, you:
(3) For the purposes of determining whether subsection 328‑180(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows you to deduct an amount in relation to a depreciating asset, disregard paragraph (a) of that subsection (which sets a limit of $1,000 on the amount) if the amount is included in the second element of the cost of the asset at any time in the period beginning at the 2020 budget time and ending on 30 June 2023.
(4) In applying paragraph 328‑180(3)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an asset, disregard an amount included in the second element of the cost of the asset if the amount is deducted under subsection 328‑180(2) of that Act, as modified by subsection (3) of this section.
(5) Section 328‑210 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the words “less than $1,000 but” in subsection (1) were disregarded, in relation to a deduction for an income year that ends:
Subsection 328‑190(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a depreciating asset as if a reference in that subsection to 15% were a reference to 57.5% if you are covered by section 40‑125 for the asset (which is about backing business investment).
(1) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your general STS pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(2) A depreciating asset of yours that had been allocated to your long life STS pool is treated as being allocated to your long life small business pool.
(3) If you made a choice, under subsection 328‑185(5) of old Subdivision 328‑D, not to have a depreciating asset allocated to your long life STS pool, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 328‑185(5) of new Subdivision 328‑D.
(1) This section applies if a depreciating asset of yours is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool or long life small business pool under section 328‑185.
(2) The opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool for the 2007‑08 income year is taken to be the closing pool balance of your general STS pool or long life STS pool, as the case requires, for the 2006‑07 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of new Subdivision 328‑D (about change in the business use of an asset).
(a) you were not an STS taxpayer for the 2006‑07 income year (because you stopped being an STS taxpayer before that time); but
(b) you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08 income year or a later income year and you choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets for that income year;
the opening pool balance of your general small business pool or long life small business pool includes the sum of the taxable purpose proportions of the adjustable values of depreciating assets allocated to the pool under subsection 328‑185(3) of new Subdivision 328‑D for that year.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of applying Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 2012‑13 income year and later income years.
(2) A depreciating asset that had been allocated to your long life small business pool is treated as being allocated to your general small business pool.
(a) the closing pool balance of your general small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under section 328‑225 of that Act; and
(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.
> Note: Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply to depreciating assets that have been allocated to your small business pools even if you are not a small business entity, or do not choose to use that Subdivision, for an income year: see section 328‑220 of that Subdivision.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct 20% of particular expenditure for your 2023‑24 income year if:
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(d) you can deduct 100% of the expenditure under another provision of a taxation law (whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred); and
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C (about what is a small business entity) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
(5) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑450 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(6) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(ii) if the provider is a registered body of a kind listed in paragraph (2)(b), (c) or (d)—the training is within the provider’s scope of registration for that kind of registered body; and
(d) each enrolment, or arrangement, for the provision of the training is made or entered into at or after 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 29 March 2022; and
> Note: Paragraphs (b) and (c) mean this section will not apply to expenditure for on‑the‑job training or training provided by you in house.
(a) a registered higher education provider (within the meaning of the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency Act 2011);
(b) a NVR registered training organisation (within the meaning of the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator Act 2011);
(c) a registered education and training organisation (within the meaning of the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic.));
(a) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(1) applies; and
(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply if your 2022‑23 income year starts before 1 July 2022. Instead, you can deduct for your 2023‑24 income year an amount that is equal to the sum of:
(a) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(1) applies; and
(b) the lower of $20,000 and 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑460(2) applies.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑460 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Sections 8‑10 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (3), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(b) you incur the expenditure in the period starting at 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 29 March 2022 and ending at the end of:
(c) you can deduct the amount of the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑455 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure was incurred; and
(d) you incur the expenditure wholly or substantially for the purposes of your digital operations or digitising your operations; and
(f) if the expenditure is on a depreciating asset—the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period referred to in paragraph (b) when you hold the asset occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the asset is not in‑house software allocated to a software development pool for the income year in which you incur the expenditure;
(a) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (3), for the income year in which you incur the expenditure; and
(c) you can deduct the amount of the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑455 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure was incurred; and
(d) you incur the expenditure wholly or substantially for the purposes of your digital operations or digitising your operations; and
(f) if the expenditure is on a depreciating asset—the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period referred to in paragraph (b) when you hold the asset occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the asset is not in‑house software allocated to a software development pool for the income year in which you incur the expenditure;
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
(4) For the purposes of paragraphs (1)(c) and (2)(c), in working out whether you can deduct an amount of expenditure on a depreciating asset, assume that:
(b) throughout that effective life, you will use the asset for a taxable purpose to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose.
(a) 20% of the total amount (which may be nil) of your expenditure to which subsection 328‑470(1) or (3) applies in relation to the income year; and
> Note: The deduction relates to the period of 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2024. An entity may have deducted an amount under paragraph (a) for a previous income year if the entity has a substituted accounting period.
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if this section and section 328‑470 of this Act were provisions of Division 25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Sections 8‑10, 40‑215 and 355‑715 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in relation to a deduction under this section.
(b) you can deduct the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑465 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(c) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose after 30 June 2023 but before 1 July 2024; and
(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.
(a) the amount is included in the second element of a depreciating asset’s cost under paragraph 40‑190(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) you can deduct the expenditure under a provision of a taxation law (other than section 328‑465 of this Act) whether or not in, or wholly in, the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(d) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year in which the expenditure is incurred; and
(i) if the asset could use a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental)—the asset to only use electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source;
(ii) if the asset uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source—the asset to be more energy efficient;
(g) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $50 million; and

(5) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b) or (3)(b), in working out whether you can deduct an amount of expenditure assume that:
(i) for the purposes of paragraph (1)(b)—to the same extent as you use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in the income year in which you start to use it, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; or
(ii) for the purposes of paragraph (3)(b)—to the same extent as you use it for a taxable purpose in the income year in which the expenditure is incurred.
(b) expenditure (other than expenditure referred to in subparagraph (3)(e)(i)) on an asset that can use a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental);
(c) an asset that solely or predominantly generates electricity from a renewable source (for example, photovoltaic cells) or expenditure on such an asset;
(d) an asset, or expenditure, being capital works for which you can deduct an amount under Division 43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the R&D entity is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D entity could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.
> Note 1: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

```
if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2) of this section.
(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and
(i) the partner can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the partner chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset; and
(d) the partner is registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 for one or more R&D activities for the event year; and
(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.
> Note 1: This section applies even if the partner is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)(e), assume that Division 40 of the new Act applied with the changes described in section 355‑310 of that Act, but with these changes to that section:

```
if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the partner’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑525(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partner’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if one or more partners (including the partner) in the R&D partnership is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset, the partner is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑448 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the partner is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑467 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s deductions under section 355‑520 of the new Act mentioned in subsection (4A) of this section.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2) of this section.
(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the partner for the event, do so apply to the partner for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑525 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partner had new law deductions.
Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

> Note 1: As originally enacted, Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applied to acquisitions on or after 4 August 1997. That Act was later amended to replace Division 58, with the replacement Division 58 applying to acquisitions on or after 1 July 2001.
> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

```
(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.

## Subdivision 701 ‑A—Preliminary
## 701‑1 Transitional group and transitiona 701‑1 Transitional group and transitional entity
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
## 701‑5 Chosen transitional entity 701‑5 Chosen transitional entity
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
## 701‑7 Working out the cost base or reduc 701‑7 Working out the cost base or reduced cost base of a pre‑CGT asset after certain roll‑overs
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
## 701‑10 Interpretation 701‑10 Interpretation
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
## Subdivision 701 ‑B—Modified application of provisions
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
## 701‑15 Tax cost and trading stock value 701‑15 Tax cost and trading stock value not set for assets of chosen transitional entities
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
## 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
## 701‑25 No operation of value shifting an 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
## 701‑32 No adjustment of amount of liabil 701‑32 No adjustment of amount of liabilities required in working out allocable cost amount
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
## 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
## 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional g 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
## 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional g 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
## 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount f 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and

(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).

(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
## 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑9 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.

(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.

## Subdivision 701C ‑C—Modifications of tax cost setting rules
## Application and object Application and object
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount for transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act, or you could have deducted an amount for the expenditure under that Subdivision if you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001.
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(a) you hold a depreciating asset (except a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001) that you:
(b) your expenditure on the asset, whenever incurred, would have been allowable capital expenditure, transport capital expenditure or expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act if it had been incurred before 1 July 2001.
(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry or proposed quarry to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life.
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(1B) Subsection (1) applies to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right (the new right) that you start to hold on or after 1 July 2001 as if you had started to hold the new right before that day if:
(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights all of which you had started to hold before 1 July 2001.
(a) you acquired, under an interest realignment arrangement, an interest (a new interest) in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right; and
(b) the interest was acquired in exchange for one or more other interests (old interests) in other mining, quarrying or prospecting rights; and
Division 40 of the new Act applies to the new interest only to the extent that the new interest was acquired in exchange for the old interests that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001.
(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) because of section 40‑35 or 40‑38 of this Act, you have deducted or can deduct an amount for a notional asset that relates to expenditure on the right under Division 40 of the new Act.
(6) Division 110 of the new Act applies as if an amount included in assessable income under subsection (4) or (5) of this section were the reversal of a deduction under a provision of the new Act outside Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 and Division 243.
(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act applies to the water facility on the basis specified in subsection 40‑515(2) of this Act, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
The reference in subsection 40‑555(1) of the new Act to a person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act for expenditure on a water facility includes a reference to the person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount for it under:

(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that deductions for project amounts in relation to that project would be worked out under section 40‑832 of that Act;
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and
(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(b) that part of the amounts the partnership has deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant that has been or would be reflected in your interest in the partnership net income or partnership loss (your partnership amount) or, if you disposed of part of your interest in the plant, so much of your partnership amount as is attributable to that part of that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
Former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not apply to any of the following acts if it is done on or after 1 July 2002:
(b) lodging an application with the Commissioner for a determination of an estimated debit in substitution for an earlier determination;
(c) a determination by the Commissioner of an estimated debit (including a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(1) A superannuation provider that has been given a transitional release authority in accordance with section 292‑80B must pay to the person within 30 days after receiving the release authority the least of the following amounts:
(a) if the person requests the provider in writing to pay a specified amount in relation to the release authority—that amount;
(c) the sum of the values of every superannuation interest (other than a defined benefit interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
> Note 1: Section 288‑95 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides for an administrative penalty for failing to comply with this subsection.
> Note 2: Section 288‑100 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides that the person giving the release authority to the superannuation provider can be liable to an administrative penalty if excess amounts are paid in relation to the release authority.
> Note 3: For reporting obligations on the superannuation provider in these circumstances, see section 390‑65 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(2) The payment must be made out of one or more superannuation interests (other than a defined benefits interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
(3) Section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the proportioning rule) does not apply to a payment made as required under this section.
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2015‑2016 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsection 292‑85(7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 applies after the commencement of this section as if:
(d) subsection 292‑85(6) of that Act as so amended had been applied (taking into account paragraph (c) of this subsection) for the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year.
(2) For the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions caps for the 2017‑2018 financial year and the 2018‑2019 financial year, if:
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsections 292‑85(6) and (7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 apply after the commencement of this section as if the amount worked out under subsection 292‑85(5) of that Act as so amended were $380,000.
(3) To avoid doubt, this section does not affect your non‑concessional contributions cap for any financial year that ended before 1 July 2017.
The tax free component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) made in a financial year on behalf of you is not included in your non‑concessional contributions (see section 292‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the financial year.
(2) Subject to section 294‑55, the amendments of Division 294 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2017 Measures No. 2) Act 2017 apply on and after 1 July 2017.
Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:
(a) the only transfer balance credits in the account in that period arose under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act (which is about superannuation income streams you have just before 1 July 2017); and
(b) the sum of those transfer balance credits exceeds your transfer balance cap, but is less than or equal to $1,700,000; and
(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;
(2) For the purposes of this section, an asset is taken to have been listed on an Australian stock exchange on 30 June 1988 if, and only if, on that day the asset had the status of having been granted official quotation by a securities exchange within the meaning of the former Securities Industry Act 1980 or the law of a State or Territory corresponding to that former Act.
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(4) The payment referred to in subsection (2) or (3) can include giving property. To the extent that the payment does, use the market value of the property in working out the amount of the payment.
(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate current balance is the total amount deposited with the fund (together with accumulated earnings), as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.
> continuously complying fixed interest ADF, in relation to an income year (the current year), means a fund that is a fixed interest complying ADF in relation to each of the following years:
> current 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor as at the reckoning time, is the balance as at that time determined by varying the original 25 May balance, in accordance with the following rules, during the period from 26 May 1988 to the reckoning time:
(b) subject to paragraph (a), an amount deposited with the ADF by the depositor before 1 September 1989 is to be added to the balance;

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

(6) This section does not apply to an ADF in relation to an income year unless the whole of the benefit that would accrue to the ADF from the application of this section in relation to the income year has been, or can reasonably expected to be, passed on to eligible depositors.
An election made by the trustee of a complying superannuation fund under subsection 279(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 that had effect for the income year of the fund in which 30 June 2007 occurs continues to have effect as if it had been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(b) the amendments of the Income Tax Assessment (1997 Act) Regulations 2021 made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023.
(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) if the Commissioner may amend the assessment in accordance with item 5 (fraud or evasion) or 6 (review or appeal) of the table in subsection 170(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
(b) if the amendment is made for the purpose of giving effect to a provision specified in the regulations for the purposes of this paragraph.
(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) that:
(a) relate to the amendments or repeals made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023; and
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:
(a) a spouse of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008 or a person who was formerly such a spouse; or
(b) a child of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008, who is aged less than 18.
(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and
(b) Subdivision 305‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the paying fund (see section 305‑55 of that Act); and
(c) the paying fund transfers an amount to a complying superannuation fund in respect of you during the deduction year; and
(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).
(2) Despite subsection 307‑125(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, work out the tax free component of superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation income stream in an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2007 as follows:
(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).
(i) an eligible termination payment had been made in respect of the holder of the interest just before the time mentioned in subsection (5); and
(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:

(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.
## 701C‑25 Application and object of this S 701C‑25 Application and object of this Subdivision
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
## Basic modification Basic modification
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.

(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or

(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and

(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and

(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.

(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or

(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.

(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:

(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or

(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:

(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.

(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(i) replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; and
(ii) increasing the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.

(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.

(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and
(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(a) just before that income year, the item was an item of your trading stock, as defined in subsection 6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force at that time; and
(b) at no time since that time has the item been an item of your trading stock, as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Example: This section applies to an item you produced, manufactured, acquired or purchased before 1997‑98 for manufacture, sale or exchange, but have not held for that purpose at any time since just before the start of that year.
(b) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) would have applied to the disposal if it had occurred before 1 July 1997;
sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) apply to your disposal of the item as if it were an item of your trading stock (as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
> Note: This ensures that your assessable income includes the market value of the item on the day of disposal. This counters your deduction under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for your expenditure to acquire the item as trading stock.
(3) If the disposal occurred before 1 July 1997, then, for the purposes of former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (dealing with disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business), the item is taken to have been, at the time of the disposal, trading stock as defined in section 70‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) former subsection 36(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies to the disposal, or would have if it had occurred before 1 July 1997; and
(b) the item’s value was taken into account at the end of the 1996‑97 income year under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
> Note: This deduction offsets the effect of the item’s value not having been taken into account under Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the start of the income year of the disposal.
#### 70‑20 Application of section 70‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock bought on or after 1 July 1997
Section 70‑20 (Non‑arm’s length transactions) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to purchases that take place on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to animals acquired by natural increase in or after the 1997‑98 income year.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year is the cost price of the animal under former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(3) For the purposes of Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the cost of an animal acquired by a partnership by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year depends on whether its cost price has been used in working out the share of a partner in the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for an earlier income year:
(a) if it has, the cost is that cost price, or the lowest of those cost prices if more than one cost price was used to work out the respective shares of partners;
(b) if it has not, the cost is the minimum cost price prescribed for the purposes of former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for that class of animal for the time when the animal was acquired, or the animal’s actual cost price if no minimum was prescribed.
> Note 1: Former section 93 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 allowed each partner to choose the cost price of an animal for working out the partner’s share of the partnership’s net income or partnership loss for income years before the 1997‑98 income year.
> Note 2: Former section 34 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 provides for the valuation of live stock acquired by natural increase before the 1997‑98 income year.
(b) that interest was also an item of your trading stock on hand at the end of the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year;
the value of the item at the end of the 1997‑98 or later income year is the value of the item as taken into account under former Subdivision B (Trading stock) of Division 2 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 at the start of the 1991‑92 income year.
(2) This section has effect despite section 70‑45 (the general rule about how to value your trading stock at the end of the income year) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, but subject to subsection 70‑70(2) (which allows you to elect to value all your interests in FIFs at their market value instead) of that Act.
(3) If you made an election under former subsection 31(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (to value all your interests in FIFs at market value), subsection 70‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to your interests in FIFs as if you had made an election under subsection 70‑70(2).
#### 70‑90 Application of sections 70‑90 and 70‑95 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business
Sections 70‑90 (Assessable income on disposal of trading stock outside the ordinary course of business) and 70‑95 (Purchase price is taken to be market value) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to a disposal of an item of trading stock that takes place on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑100 Application of section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to disposals of trading stock outside ordinary course of business
(1) Section 70‑100 (Notional disposal when you stop holding an item as trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that stops being trading stock on hand of an entity on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of trading stock to which subsection (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (4) of that section to value trading stock at what would have been its value at the end of an income year ending on the day it became trading stock on hand of the second entity.
> Note: Section 70‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if any of the entities with an interest in the trading stock (either before or after it becomes trading stock on hand of the second entity) has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
(1) Section 70‑105 (Death of owner) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to trading stock that devolves as a result of a person dying on or after 1 July 1997.
(2) The value of an item to which subsection (3) or (4) of that section applies is to be worked out using the rules in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (and not the rules in Subdivision 70‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) if:
(b) an election is made under subsection (3) or (4) of that section to value the item at an amount other than its market value.
> Note: Section 70‑105 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may affect an assessment for the 1996‑97 income year if an entity on which the item devolves has a 1996‑97 income year ending on or after 1 July 1997.
#### 70‑115 Application of section 70‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to insurance and indemnity payments in 1997‑98 and later income years
Section 70‑115 (Compensation for lost trading stock) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to an amount received in the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year by way of insurance or indemnity for a loss of trading stock, even if the loss occurred earlier. However, that section does not apply to an amount that is assessable income for an income year before the 1997‑98 income year.
(a) the payment is received by you because you are entitled to it under a written contract, a law of the Commonwealth, a State, a Territory or another country, an instrument under such a law, a collective agreement within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 or an AWA within the meaning of that Act; and
(b) the entitlement is provided for under that contract, law, instrument or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006.
(2) However, this Division does not apply in relation to a life benefit termination payment received by you on or after 1 July 2012 (except to the extent provided by Subdivision 82‑E).
(3) This Division applies in relation to a life benefit termination payment only to the extent that the contract, law or agreement as in force just before 10 May 2006 specifies the amount of the payment, or a way to work out a specific amount of the payment.
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), a specific amount can be worked out in ways including either or both of the following:
(b) by provision for you or another person (or entity) to make a choice between forms of payment allowing amounts to be worked out as provided by subsection (3) and paragraph (a) of this subsection.
> Note: Example: For paragraph (b), a specific amount of a life benefit termination payment that you receive on 1 July 2007 can be worked out from the terms of your written contract if the contract provided (just before 10 May 2006) for you to choose between payment in the form of a cash amount of $100,000 or the transfer to you of 10,000 shares in a specified company.
> Note: Section 80‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 allows for employment termination payments to include the transfer of property (for example, shares). If so, the market value of the property is included in the amount of the payment (except any part of the property for which separate consideration has been given).
(5) To the extent that this Division applies to a life benefit termination payment, Subdivision 82‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the payment (subject to Subdivision 82‑E of this Act).
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are your preservation age or older on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
> Note 2: Under section 82‑10C, you may also be entitled to a tax offset on the taxable component of a transitional termination payment you receive in an income year before the year in which you reached your preservation age.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (6) (the low rate part) does not exceed 15%.
(5) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (7) (the middle rate part) does not exceed 30%.
(6) The low rate part is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your lower cap amount under section 82‑10B.

> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your lower cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is the ETP cap amount for the year, reduced in accordance with this section.
(b) by so much of the total amounts of transitional termination payments (if any) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year) for which you are entitled to a tax offset under subsection 82‑10A(4).
Step 1. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the amounts (if any) of transitional termination payments received by you (including any directed termination payments received on your behalf) in any income year before the income year in which you reached your preservation age.
Step 2. Work out the total of the taxable components of all the directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time, in the income year in which you reached your preservation age or later.
Step 3. Work out the amount (the cap difference) by which $1,000,000 exceeds the ETP cap for the income year in which you receive the payment to which subsection (1) applies.
Step 4. The cap excess is the amount (not less than zero) by which the sum of the amounts in steps 1 and 2 exceeds the cap difference in step 3.
(4) For the purposes of this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(5) For the purposes of this section, disregard any reduction of the ETP cap amount under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) This section applies to a transitional termination payment you receive (except any part of the payment that is a directed termination payment) if you are under your preservation age on the last day of the income year in which you receive the payment.
(4) You are entitled to a tax offset that ensures that the rate of income tax on the amount mentioned in subsection (5) does not exceed 30%.
> Note: The remainder of the taxable component is taxed at the top marginal rate in accordance with the Income Tax Rates Act 1986.
(5) The amount is so much of the taxable component of the payment as does not exceed your upper cap amount under section 82‑10D.
> Note: If you have received another life benefit termination payment in the same income year (or in an earlier income year) that is not a transitional termination payment, your entitlement to a tax offset under this section is not affected by your entitlement (if any) to a tax concession for the other payment (under section 82‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
(1) Your upper cap amount in relation to a transitional termination payment you receive at a time in an income year is $1,000,000, reduced in accordance with this section.
(a) by the total of all the amounts (if any) included in your assessable income under subsection 82‑10C(3) and subsection 82‑10A(3) that you received at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year); and
(b) by the total amount of the taxable components of all directed termination payments (if any) received on your behalf at an earlier time (whether in the income year or in an earlier income year).
(3) For this section, a directed termination payment is taken to be received on your behalf at the time the entity to which it is directed receives the payment.
(a) the individual chooses, in accordance with this section, to direct the payment (or part of the payment) to be made; and
(2) An individual may choose, within 30 days after a pre‑payment statement about a transitional termination payment is given to the individual under section 82‑10E, to direct the payer to use all or part of the payment to make a payment on behalf of the individual:
(a) give the entity (or entities) to which payment is directed written notice of the amount that is to be paid, and of the tax free component of the amount; and
A directed termination payment made on your behalf, that you are taken to receive under section 80‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
> Note 1: Directed termination payments are paid into a complying superannuation plan (or to purchase a superannuation annuity) on your behalf: see section 82‑10F.
> Note 2: The taxable component of the payment is included in the assessable income of the entity receiving the payment: see section 295‑190 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 3: In addition, income tax may be payable on a benefit you later receive from the plan to which the directed termination payment is made: see Divisions 301‑307 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
#### 82‑10H Transitional termination payments may reduce ETP cap amount for payments under section 82‑10 after 1 July 2012
(1) This section deals with the application of paragraph 82‑10(4)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2012.
(2) For the purposes of that paragraph, the ETP cap amount is taken to be further reduced (but not below zero) by the amount mentioned in subsection (3) (the concessional amount) of any transitional termination payment made in consequence of the same employment termination as the employment termination to which the paragraph applies.
(3) The concessional amount of a transitional termination payment is the part (if any) of the taxable component of the payment for which you are entitled to a tax offset under section 82‑10A or 82‑10C of this Act.
(b) the relevant share or right (within the meaning of Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced, (former Division 13A)) was not acquired (within the meaning of former Division 13A) before 1 July 2009.
(2) Furthermore, Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and the rest of Division 83A of that Act, to the extent that it relates to that Subdivision) also applies in relation to an ESS interest if:
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) the cessation time mentioned in subsection 139B(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, for the interest did not occur before 1 July 2009; or
(i) at the pre‑Division 83A time, section 26AAC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former section 26AAC) applied in relation to the interest;
(iii) an amount has not been included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest before 1 July 2009.
(2A) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of subparagraph (2)(a)(i), section 139CDA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied to the interest at the pre‑Division 83A time if the taxpayer in question first became or becomes an employee, as mentioned in that section, before the cessation time for the interest. It does not matter whether the employee so became or becomes an employee before, on or after the pre‑Division 83A time.
(4) If Subdivision 83A‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to an ESS interest because of subsection (2):
(a) do not include an amount in your assessable income under subsection 83A‑110(1) of that Act in relation to the ESS interest to the extent that the amount relates to your employment outside Australia; and
(b) subject to subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) of that Act, whichever is applicable, treat the ESS deferred taxing point for the interest as being:
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the earliest time at which an amount is included in a person’s assessable income under former section 26AAC in relation to the interest; and
(c) treat the reference in subsection 83A‑115(3) or 83A‑120(3) (30 day rule for ESS deferred taxing point), whichever is applicable, of that Act to the time worked out under subsection 83A‑115(2) or 83A‑120(2) of that Act as being a reference to the time worked out under paragraph (b) of this subsection; and
(d) treat the requirements in paragraphs 83A‑310(1)(a), (b) and (c) of that Act as being satisfied in relation to the interest if, and only if:
(i) if paragraph (2)(a) applies—the 2 requirements mentioned in section 139DD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time) are satisfied in relation to the interest; or
(ii) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—the requirements in paragraphs (8D)(a), (b) and (c) of former section 26AAC are satisfied in relation to the interest; and
(e) Subdivision 14‑C in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (about TFN withholding tax (ESS)) does not apply to the ESS interest; and
(i) for the purposes of Division 115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Discount capital gains and trusts’ net capital gains), treat the ESS interest as having been acquired by an individual when the individual acquired the legal title in the share or right of which the ESS interest forms part; and
(ii) for the purposes of Division 392 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Statements), disregard any election made under former section 139E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(g) if paragraph (2)(b) applies—paragraph 82‑135(m) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the ESS interest.
(a) at the time (the pre‑Division 83A time) occurring just before Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009 commenced:
(i) Division 13A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at that time, (former Division 13A) applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of former Division 13A); or
(ii) section 26AAC of that Act, as in force at that time, applied in relation to a share or right (within the meaning of that section as in force at that time); and
(b) if there is a beneficial interest in the share or right that is an ESS interest—Division 83A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply in relation to the interest under section 83A‑5.
(2) If subparagraph (1)(a)(i) applies, to avoid doubt, former Division 13A continues to apply (in spite of its repeal) to the share or right.
(3) If subparagraph (1)(a)(ii) applies, to avoid doubt, sections 26AAC and 26AAD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force at the pre‑Division 83A time, continue to apply (in spite of their repeal) to the share or right.
(2) Division 13A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have applied as if the right had always been a right to acquire the beneficial interest in the share.
(3) Section 170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not prevent the amendment of an assessment at any time for the purpose of giving effect to subsection (2) of this section.
Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about capital gains and capital losses) apply to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(1) In working out whether you have made a capital gain or a capital loss from a CGT event that happens in relation to a CGT asset in the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year, you use only the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (or a provision of an Act that modifies the operation of those Parts) unless a provision of this Part or Part 3‑3 of this Act also requires you to use another provision.
> Note 1: This means that, for example, in working out your cost base of the asset, you will apply the new law to circumstances that occurred before the 1998‑99 income year (except where this Act requires you to use another provision).
> Note 2: In most cases, the other provision is a provision of this Act. However, in some cases, other provisions may be relevant (for example, provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
> Note 3: Part X of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 includes provisions that modify the operation of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) an entity acquired a CGT asset before the start of the 1998‑99 income year as part of a transaction or event or series of transactions or events in respect of which there was a roll‑over under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
the provisions of Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to the asset from the time when the roll‑over happened except that the first element of the cost base and reduced cost base of the asset (when the roll‑over happened) is the amount the entity is taken to have paid as consideration in respect of the acquisition of the asset under the relevant provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) In working out whether you have a net capital gain for the 1998‑99 income year, the amount of any net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year must be worked out under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) If you had a net capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year, or some unapplied net capital loss for either of the 2 preceding income years, under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it can be carried forward to a later income year to be applied under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The way in which capital losses can be applied may be affected by other provisions: see section 102‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you had a net listed personal‑use asset loss for the 1997‑98 income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, it is taken for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a net capital loss from collectables for that income year.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands on or before 30 June 1991; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 1 July 1991, and had the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 been in force at the time of the event, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
(f) the first element of the asset’s cost base in the hands of the entity (at the end of that day) is its market value at that time.
> Note: A prescribed person was a Territory resident, a Territory company or a trustee of a Territory trust, as defined by former sections 24C, 24D and 24E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) an entity was a prescribed person (within the meaning of former Division 1A of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) because of residence in Norfolk Island on or before 23 October 2015; and
(d) had a CGT event happened in relation to the asset immediately before 24 October 2015, any capital gain or capital loss from the event would have been disregarded because the entity was a prescribed person;
then Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply in relation to the asset as if references in those Parts to 20 September 1985 were references to 24 October 2015.
(a) the date of acquisition of an asset in relation to which subsection (1) of this section applies, or its cost base on 30 June 1991; or
(4) However, the entity may choose that subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an asset to which it would (apart from this subsection) apply if:
(b) as at the date on which it happens, the entity has complied with Division 121 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the asset.
The capital proceeds from an ending referred to in subsection 104‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to shares are reduced by any amount that was taken into account as a capital gain for the shares under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year.
(a) you made the capital gain or capital loss for the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier income year under former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you granted an option to an entity, or renewed or extended an option you had granted; and
(1) Section 104‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the purpose of working out the cost base of a unit or an interest you own in a trust if these conditions are satisfied:
(b) you were taken to have disposed of the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the former equivalent of CGT event E4) because of a payment made by the trustee before 18 December 1986; and
(d) some or all of the non‑assessable part (the attributable part) was attributable to a deduction under former Division 10C or 10D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about capital works).
(3) Subsection 104‑70(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a unit or interest to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the unit or interest under former section 160ZM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subsection 104‑135(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of a share to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the share under former section 160ZL of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(b) because of the choice, an asset is taken to have the necessary connection with Australia under subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 just before the commencement of Schedule 4 of the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 4) Act 2006.
(2) To avoid doubt, the choice has effect for the purposes of subsection 104‑165(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
> Note: This means that the asset will be taxable Australian property under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as in force on and after that commencement.
Subsection 104‑165(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues to apply, despite its repeal by item 20 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2006 Measures No. 1) Act 2006, to an individual:
(b) who remains an Australian resident from that day until the time subsection 104‑165(1) is applied in respect of him or her.
104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
(1) Unless subsection (2) or (3) of this section applies, sections 104‑175 and 104‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply if there was a roll‑over under former section 160ZZO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for a disposal of an asset from one company to another company (the transferee).
(2) If CGT event J1 would happen in relation to the roll‑over in a situation involving something happening in relation to the transferee, that event does not happen if there would have been no deemed disposal and re‑acquisition of the asset by the transferee in that situation under whichever of these provisions would have been relevant for that situation if it had happened before the start of the 1998‑99 income year:
(3) In working out whether subsection (2) affects you, take into account provisions of other Acts that amended former Part IIIA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 and that affect the situation referred to in that subsection.
#### 104‑185 Change of status of replacement asset for a roll‑over under Division 17A of former Part IIIA of the 1936 Act or Division 123 of the 1997 Act
in the same way as it applies to a replacement asset for a roll‑over under Subdivision 152‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subsection 104‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 also reduces the cost base and reduced cost base of the item to nil if an amount was taken into account as a capital gain for the item under former section 160ZZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) at some time when the R&D entity held the asset, it used the asset for the purpose of the carrying on by or on its behalf of research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936).
(2) Sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act) apply to the R&D entity for the event as if:
(a) a reference in those sections to the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which you were registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986;
(a) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
(b) sections 104‑235 and 104‑240 of the new Act (as those sections apply because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The sections described in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had used the asset for the purpose of conducting R&D activities for which it was registered under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986.
> Note 2: The sections described in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply in respect of the purpose described in paragraph (1)(b) of this section.
If:
(a) an entity owned a thing that is not a form of property before 26 June 1992 and at all times from that day to the start of the entity’s 1998‑99 income year; and
(b) that thing was not, before 26 June 1992, an asset as defined in former section 160A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
Section 108‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a collectable you own that you last acquired before 16 December 1995.
(1) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑J of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑L of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZZPE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(4) Subsection 108‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a roll‑over under former section 160ZWC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way that it applies to a roll‑over under Subdivision 124‑K of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: This provision covers the case where the roll‑over occurred in the 1997‑98 income year or an earlier one and the relevant CGT event in the 1998‑99 income year or a later one.
Despite section 108‑85 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the Commissioner is entitled to publish the improvement threshold for the 1998‑99 income year:
(a) the circumstances specified in the second column of the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for CGT event E1, E2 or E3 happened in relation to an asset before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994; and
(b) the trustee that owned the asset just after those circumstances happened also owned it at all times from then until the start of the trustee’s 1998‑99 income year;
the question whether those circumstances resulted in an acquisition of an asset by the trustee is to be determined under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force just before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
(2) The acquisition rule for CGT event E9 (about an entity creating a trust over future property) in the table in subsection 109‑5(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to you as trustee if the agreement to create the trust was made before 12 noon, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 12 January 1994.
For the purpose of working out the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000, the cost base includes indexation only if the company or organisation chooses that the cost base includes indexation.
Despite subsection 110‑35(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, expenditure for professional advice about taxation incurred before 1 July 1989 does not form part of the cost base of a CGT asset.
(b) to which paragraph 112‑20(2)(b) or (c), or item 5 or 6 in the table in subsection 112‑20(3), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply (apart from this section);
> Note: This section preserves the pre‑16 August 1989 position for, among other things, shares or units issued or allotted to you by allowing the market value substitution rule to apply.
(1) This section affects how to work out a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event that happens to a CGT asset after 31 December 1990 if:
(a) before 1 January 1991, you used the asset (other than on a prior holding of it) solely for the purpose of producing exempt income, and principally for the purpose of producing exempt income to which former paragraph 23(o) or former subsection 23C(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (about income from producing or selling gold) applied; and
(2) For the purposes of working out a capital gain you make from the CGT event, if the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was more than its cost base at that time, the first element of its cost base at that time is that market value.
(4) If the asset’s market value at the end of 31 December 1990 was less than its reduced cost base at that time, the first element of its reduced cost base at that time is that market value.
(a) treat your notional deductions (within the meaning of Subdivision B or C of former Division 16H of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) as amounts you have deducted; and
Indexation is not relevant to the capital gain of a life insurance company or a registered organisation from a CGT event happening after 11.45 am (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 21 September 1999 and before 1 July 2000 unless the company or organisation has chosen that the cost base include indexation for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A capital gain or capital loss you make from the interest is disregarded if the first element of its cost base is $500 or less.
(1) Disregard a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event happening in relation to pilot plant, as defined in former subsection 73B(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936:
(iii) the change of ownership constituting the disposal occurred after 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999.
(1) None of the amendments made by Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (Reducing Pressure on Housing Affordability Measures) Act 2019 apply in relation to a capital gain or capital loss you make from a CGT event if:

(b) on or before the day specified in subsection (2) or (3), the company issues other shares, or the trustee issues other units, (the bonus equities) to you because it owes an amount to you in relation to the original equities.
(b) you work out the cost base and reduced cost base of the bonus equities under subsection 130‑20(3) of that Act regardless of whether any part of the amount owed to you by the company is a dividend.
(3) The rule in item 2 of the table in subsection 130‑20(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the bonus equities were issued on or before 1 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 10 December 1986 and you were required to pay or give something for them.

A choice under section 165‑115U of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to use the global method of working out whether a company has an adjusted unrealised loss at a particular time must be made within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if:
(1) A notice under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be given within 6 months after the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent if the alteration time is before that day.
(2) If, because of amendments made by Schedule 14 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002, a notice already given under subsection 165‑115ZC(4) or (5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before the day referred to in subsection (1) of this section no longer complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the entity required to give the notice may comply with that section 165‑115ZC by giving a further notice.
(a) must vary the notice referred to in subsection (2) in such a way (which may include setting out additional information) that the notice as varied complies with section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as affected by the amendments; and
(b) must be given within the 6 months referred to in subsection (1) of this section, or within a further period allowed by the Commissioner; and

(b) would be so realised but for Subdivision 170‑D of that Act (which defers realisation of capital losses and deductions);
and the company chose to use the global method of working out whether it had an adjusted unrealised loss at the last alteration time:
(i) if the company was a loss company at that alteration time—a relevant equity interest, or a relevant debt interest, that an entity had in the company; or
(e) that last alteration time is before the day on which the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 received the Royal Assent; and
(f) the entity that owns the equity or debt immediately before the realisation event chooses to apply this section to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, instead of section 165‑115ZD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and

(2) In addition to any application to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, that sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 have apart from this section, those sections apply (and are taken always to have applied) to the equity or debt, in relation to that last alteration time, as if:
(a) the company had an adjusted unrealised loss at that time equal to the realised loss (see subsection (1) or (5), as appropriate, of this section) of this section, except so much of the loss as it is reasonable to conclude is attributable to none of these:
(i) a notional capital loss, or a notional revenue loss, that the company has at that last alteration time in respect of a CGT asset;
(ii) a trading stock decrease in relation to that time for a CGT asset that was trading stock of the company at that time; and
(3) For the purposes of how sections 165‑115ZA and 165‑115ZB of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply because of this section, the adjustment amount under section 165‑115ZB of that Act is to be worked out and applied in accordance with subsection 165‑115ZB(6) (the non‑formula method) of that Act.
(a) a notice need not be given under section 165‑115ZC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because of this section; and
(b) this section does not affect the requirements that apply to a notice that otherwise must be given under that section.
(5) If the equity or debt is a revenue asset at the time of the realisation event, subsection (2) applies on the basis that the realised loss is the total of:
(a) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a CGT asset; and
(b) the loss (if any) realised for income tax purposes by the realisation event happening to the equity or debt in its character as a revenue asset.

(ii) that could have been applied, in accordance with Divisions 165 and 166 of that Act as in force at that time, in the first income year commencing after 30 June 2002 if the application of the loss had not been limited by the company’s capital gains for that income year.

Subject to Subdivision 197‑C of this Division, new Division 197 applies to transfers made into a company’s share capital account after the introduction day.
#### Subdivision 197‑C—Special provisions about companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
#### 197‑10 Subdivision applies to companies whose share capital accounts were tainted when old Division 7B was closed off
This Subdivision applies to a company if, immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day, the company’s share capital account was tainted under old Division 7B.
(1) The company’s share capital account is taken to have ceased to be tainted under old Division 7B at the start of the Division 7B close‑off day.
(2) No liability to untainting tax, and no franking debit, arises under old Division 7B in relation to the share capital account being taken to have ceased to be tainted.
#### 197‑20 After introduction day, account taken to have become tainted under new Division 197 to extent of previous tainting
(1) Immediately after the introduction day, the company’s share capital account is taken to become tainted under new Division 197 as if:
(a) the company had, at that time, transferred an amount (the notionally transferred amount) to its share capital account from another of its accounts that equalled the tainting amount (the old Division 7B tainting amount), within the meaning of old Division 7B, in relation to the share capital account immediately before the old Division 7B close‑off day; and
(b) none of the exclusions in sections 197‑10 to 197‑40 of new Division 197 applied, to any extent, in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(2) No franking debit arises under Subdivision 197‑B of new Division 197 in relation to the notionally transferred amount.
(1) This section applies if, after the introduction day, the company chooses under section 197‑55 of new Division 197 to untaint its share capital account.
(2) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
> Note 2: If the company is covered by subsection (6), the old Division 7B tainting amount components will not be included in the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60.
(3) For the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, a reference to the section 197‑45 franking debit that arose in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component is taken to be a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to that component (see subsection (4)).
(4) For the purpose of subsection (3), the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(5) The company is not liable to untainting tax under section 197‑60 of new Division 197 in relation to the choice to untaint if:
(a) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted under old Division 7B to the time when the choice to untaint is made, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197); and
(b) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 does not include any amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(a) the tainting amount for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197 consists of or includes an amount or amounts of the kind mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section; and
(b) during the period from the time when the company’s share capital account became tainted to the time when the amount, or the first of the amounts, referred to in paragraph (a) of this subsection was transferred into the company’s share capital account, the company was a company with only lower tax shareholders (as defined in subsection 197‑60(1) of new Division 197);
then, despite subsection (2) of this section, for the purpose of section 197‑60 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint does not include the old Division 7B tainting amount components.
(7) For the purpose of section 197‑65 of new Division 197, the tainting amount at the time of the choice to untaint is taken to consist of:
(b) any amounts to which new Division 197 applies that have been transferred to the company’s share capital account since the introduction day and before the choice to untaint is made.
(8) Paragraph 197‑65(1)(b) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the following paragraph (the notionally substituted paragraph) were substituted for it:
(b) the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component is less than the amount calculated by the formula in subsection 197‑65(3) in relation to the component.
(9) Subsection 197‑65(3) of new Division 197 has effect in relation to each old Division 7B tainting amount component as if the reference to the amount of the franking debit that arose under section 197‑45 in relation to the transferred amount were instead a reference to the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
(10) For the purpose of the notionally substituted paragraph, and of subsection (9) of this section, the tax‑paid‑basis franking debit amount, in relation to an old Division 7B tainting amount component, is the amount worked out in accordance with the formula:

> class A franking debit means the class A franking debit (if any) that arose under section 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
> class C franking debit means the class C franking debit that arose under section 160ARDQ or 160ARDV of old Division 7B in relation to the old Division 7B tainting amount component.
Former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 does not apply to any of the following acts if it is done on or after 1 July 2002:
(b) lodging an application with the Commissioner for a determination of an estimated debit in substitution for an earlier determination;
(c) a determination by the Commissioner of an estimated debit (including a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(e) the deemed determination of an estimated debit in accordance with an application (including an application for a determination in substitution for an earlier determination);
(f) the deemed service of notice of a determination on a company (including service of notice of a determination in substitution for an earlier determination).
Where, but for this section, 1 July 2002 would fall within a franking period for a corporate tax entity, but would not be the first day of the franking period, the franking period:
205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
205‑15 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If a company has a franking account under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old account) at the end of 30 June 2002, the old account is closed off and an opening balance is created in the company’s franking account under section 205‑10 as follows:
(a) any estimated debits in the old account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 205‑5; and
(i) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a company whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the company’s franking account balances are converted under section 205‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated debit of a company would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
> Note: A franking credit of the appropriate class equal to the debit will arise under former section 160APU of that Act at the beginning of 30 June 2002.
#### 205‑10 Converting the franking account balance to a tax paid basis—companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to companies whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If the company has a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002:
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.
(3) The franking credit generated under paragraph (2)(b) from a franking surplus of a class specified in column 2 of the following table is worked out using the formula in column 3 of the table for that class.

(2) If, but for this subsection, the company would have a franking surplus of a particular class under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (an original surplus):
(a) a franking debit equal to the surplus is taken to arise for the company under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a franking credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the franking account established under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the company.

(2) A corporate tax entity’s liability to pay franking deficit tax is determined under sections 205‑25 and 205‑30 of this Act (the transitional provisions), and not under sections 205‑45 and 205‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the ongoing provisions), if:
(c) the entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions.
(3) The entity makes a valid election to have its liability to pay franking deficit tax determined under the transitional provisions if:
(b) the election is made on the day on which liability for franking deficit tax would be determined under those provisions, or earlier than that day but in the income year in which that day occurs; and
(1) While recognising that an entity may anticipate franking credits when franking distributions, the object of this section is to prevent those credits from being anticipated indefinitely by requiring the entity to reconcile its franking account at certain times and levying tax if the account is in deficit.
(2) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if its franking account is in deficit at the end of 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year.
(3) An entity is liable to pay franking deficit tax imposed by the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 if:
> Note: The tax is imposed in the New Business Tax System (Franking Deficit Tax) Act 2002 and the amount of the tax is set out in that Act.
(1) The object of this section is to ensure that an entity does not avoid franking deficit tax by deferring the time at which a franking debit occurs in its franking account.
(a) a corporate tax entity receives a refund of income tax within 3 months after 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year; and
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, at the end of 30 June in that year if the refund had been received immediately before that time;
(3) If an entity ceases to be a franking entity during a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in the year 2003 or a later year, a refund of income tax is taken to have been paid to it immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, for the purposes of subsection 205‑25(3), if:
(c) the franking account of the entity would have been in deficit, or in deficit to a greater extent, immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity, if the refund had been received before it ceased to be a franking entity.
#### 205‑35 No franking deficit tax if franking account in deficit at the close of the 2001‑02 income year of a late balancing entity
If:
the entity is not liable to pay franking deficit tax under subsection 205‑45(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the account is in deficit at that time.
(1) Section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to a corporate tax entity’s assessments for the 2002‑2003 income year and later income years, except as provided in the following subsections.
(2) If a corporate tax entity’s 2001‑2002 income year ends after 30 June 2002, section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred before 30 June 2003.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that date.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after 30 June 2003.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) and was incurred in the 2001‑2002 income year.
Step 6. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the entity’s assessment for that income year as if the following method statement had replaced the method statement in that section.
Step 1. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred on or before the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 2. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(a) and was incurred after the 30 June in the relevant year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in the relevant year.
Step 3. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred on or before the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account during the period of 12 months immediately preceding that 30 June.
Step 4. Work out the total amount of franking deficit tax that is covered by paragraph (1)(b) in relation to a previous income year and was incurred after the 30 June in that income year.
Then reduce it by 30% if it exceeds 10% of the total amount of franking credits that arose in the entity’s franking account after that date and before the end of the last day on which the entity incurred a franking deficit tax liability in that income year.
Step 7. Add up the results of steps 1, 2, 5 and 6. The result is the tax offset to which the entity is entitled under this section for the relevant year.
(5) If a franking credit has been taken into account previously in reducing an amount worked out under a step in the method statement in:
that credit is not to be taken into account again in reducing another amount worked out under a step in such a method statement.
(6) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 2 and 3 of the method statement in subsection (3), and in steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the method statement in subsection (4), apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(7) The 30% reductions in those steps do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(2) The 30% reductions for an entity in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply only to franking deficit tax that is attributable to franking debits of the entity:
(a) that arose under table item 1, 3, 5 or 6 in section 205‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the relevant income year; and
(b) if the entity has franking debits covered by paragraph (a) for the relevant income year—that arose under table item 2 in that section of that Act for the relevant income year.
(3) The 30% reductions in steps 1 and 2 of the method statement in subsection 205‑70(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply in working out the amount of the tax offset to which an entity is entitled for the relevant year if the Commissioner determines in writing, on application by the entity in the approved form, that the excess referred to in those steps was due to events outside the control of the entity.
(i) are covered by paragraph (1)(a) of former section 160AQK or of former section 160AQKAA (as appropriate) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(a) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity during the first income year were liabilities to pay franking deficit tax under that Act; and
(b) so much of the relevant liabilities as were incurred by the entity before the start of the first income year were the excess mentioned in paragraph (1)(c) of that section.
(a) whether or not the entity is entitled to a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the first income year or a later income year; and
(1) This section applies if Subdivision C of Division 5 of former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 would, apart from former section 160AOAA of that Act, apply in relation to an entity’s assessment for a year of income that ends before 1 July 2002.
(a) the making of a determination under that Subdivision on or after that date for an offset to reduce the entity’s income tax liability for that year of income; and
(3) However, in working out the amount of that offset, any liabilities to pay franking deficit tax or deficit deferral tax that have been taken into account in working out a tax offset under section 205‑70 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 must be disregarded.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out the following for a company that was a former exempting company (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) whether the company has an exempting surplus or an exempting deficit for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at a time after 30 June 2002;
(2) If the company had a class A exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class A exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(3) If the company had a class C exempting surplus (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002:
(a) a class C exempting debit equal to the surplus is taken to have arisen immediately before the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting credit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: Section 205‑5 (with former sections 160APU and 160AQCNM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) may affect whether the company had such a surplus at the end of 30 June 2002 and the amount of that surplus, but this section does not (because this section affects the company’s exempting account balance only after then).
(4) If the company had a class A exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class A exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class A exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(5) If the company had a class C exempting deficit (as defined in former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) at the end of 30 June 2002 and its 2001‑02 franking year (as defined in that Part) ended earlier:
(a) a class C exempting credit equal to the deficit is taken to have arisen at the end of 30 June 2002 for the purposes of that Part; and
(b) an exempting debit of the amount worked out using the formula is taken to have arisen at the start of 1 July 2002 in the exempting account that the company has under section 208‑110 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997:
> Note: If the company’s 2001‑02 franking year ended at the end of 30 June 2002 and it would have had a class C exempting deficit at that time apart from former section 160AQCNO of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that section will have eliminated the deficit and either:
(b) reduced the franking credit arising under section 205‑10 of this Act in the franking account the company has under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
The venture capital sub‑account of a PDF under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old sub‑account) is closed off at the end of 30 June 2002 and an opening balance is created in the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as follows:
(a) any estimated venture capital debits in the old sub‑account at the end of 30 June 2002 are washed out of the account under section 210‑5; and
(i) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑10 to a tax paid basis; and
(ii) in the case of a PDF whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936—the PDF’s venture capital sub‑account balance is converted under section 210‑15 to a tax paid basis.
If, under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment act 1936, the termination time in relation to an estimated venture capital debit of a PDF would, but for this section, occur after the end of 30 June 2002, it is taken to have occurred at the end of 30 June 2002.
#### 210‑10 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends on 30 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the PDF.

#### 210‑15 Converting the venture capital sub‑account balance to a tax paid basis—PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 30 June 2002
(1) This section applies to PDFs whose 2001‑02 franking year ends before 20 June 2002 under former Part IIIAA of the Income Tax Assessment 1936 (the 1936 Act).
(2) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital surplus under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original surplus):
(a) a venture capital debit equal to the original surplus is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital credit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the 1997 Act) for the PDF.
(4) If, but for this subsection, the PDF would have a venture capital deficit under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002 (the original deficit):
(a) a venture capital credit equal to the original deficit is taken to arise for the PDF under former Part IIIAA of the 1936 Act at the end of 30 June 2002; and
(b) a venture capital debit arises on 1 July 2002 in the venture capital sub‑account established under section 210‑100 of the 1997 Act for the PDF.
This Division applies to a corporate tax entity if a liability to pay franking deficit tax arises for the entity under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that occur within a period of 12 months ending on 30 June in any year (the balancing period).
(1) The entity must give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period setting out the following information before the end of the month immediately following the end of the period:
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(1) The Commissioner may give the entity a written notice requiring the entity to give the Commissioner a franking return for the balancing period.
(2) The entity must comply with the requirement within the time specified in the notice, or within any further time allowed by the Commissioner.
(3) The entity must comply with the requirement regardless of whether the entity has given, or has been required to give, the Commissioner a return under section 214‑5.
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3) of this Act; and
(c) when the refund is received, the entity does not have a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose; and
(d) the entity receives the refund within the period of 14 days ending on the day by which the outstanding return must be given to the Commissioner;
the entity may, instead of accounting for the liability, or increased liability, in the outstanding return, account for it in a further return given to the Commissioner within 14 days after the refund is received.
(3) A franking return for a balancing period is outstanding at a particular time if each of the following is true at that time:
(1) A franking return for a balancing period is in addition to any franking return that the entity is required to give to the Commissioner under Subdivision 214‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year in which the balancing period ends.
(2) However, if an entity is required to give a franking return for a balancing period, it is not required to include in its franking return for the income year in which that period ends anything that should have been included in the franking return for the balancing period.
(a) if the entity is a franking entity at the end of the balancing period—its franking account balance at the end of the period; and
(b) if the entity ceases to be a franking entity during the balancing period—its franking account balance immediately before it ceased to be a franking entity; and
(c) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax that the entity is liable to pay under section 205‑25 of this Act because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period.
(a) the entity gives the Commissioner a franking return under section 214‑5 or 214‑10 of this Act on a particular day (the return day); and
the Commissioner is taken to have made a franking assessment for the entity for the period on the return day, and to have assessed:
(d) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the return as the balance at that time; and
(e) the amount (if any) of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the return.
(2) The return is taken to be notice of the assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the return day.
(1) The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period at any time during the period of 3 years after the original assessment day for the entity for the period.
(2) The original assessment day for the entity for the balancing period is the day on which the first franking assessment for the entity for the period is made.
Once an amended franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is made, it is taken to be a franking assessment for the entity for the period.
(b) on a particular day (the further return day) the entity gives the Commissioner a further return for the balancing period under subsection 214‑15(1) of this Act (because the entity has received a refund of income tax that affects its liability to pay franking deficit tax);
the Commissioner is taken to have amended the entity’s franking assessment on the further return day, and to have assessed:
(c) the entity’s franking account balance at a particular time as that stated in the further return as the balance at that time; and
(d) the amount of franking deficit tax payable by the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the period as those stated in the further return.
(2) The further return is taken to be notice of the amended assessment signed by the Commissioner and given to the entity on the further return day.
The Commissioner may amend a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the end of a period of 3 years after the original franking assessment day if, within that 3 year period:
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
the Commissioner may amend the assessment at any time during the period of 6 years after the original franking assessment day.
If:
(a) the entity does not make a full and true disclosure to the Commissioner of the information necessary for a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period; and
If:
(a) a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period has been amended (the first amendment) in any particular; and
(b) the Commissioner is of the opinion that it would be just to further amend the assessment in that particular so as to reduce the assessment;
In a case not covered by sections 214‑50, 214‑55, 214‑60 or 214‑65, the Commissioner may amend the franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period after the period of 3 years after the original assessment day has expired, but not so as to reduce the assessment.
If the Commissioner amends the entity’s franking assessment for the balancing period, the Commissioner must give the entity notice of the amendment as soon as practicable after making the amendment.
The validity of a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period is not affected because any of the provisions of this Act (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) have not been complied with.
If a corporate tax entity is dissatisfied with a franking assessment made in relation to the entity under this Division, the entity may object against the assessment in the manner set out in Part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(1) Unless this section provides otherwise, franking deficit tax assessed for the entity because of events that have occurred, or are taken to have occurred, during the balancing period is due and payable on the last day of the month immediately following the end of the balancing period.
(a) the Commissioner amends a franking assessment for the entity for the balancing period (the earlier assessment) other than because of the operation of section 214‑30 (an amendment because of a refund of tax that affects franking deficit tax liability); and
(b) the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the amended assessment exceeds the amount of franking deficit tax payable under the earlier assessment;
(b) the receipt of the refund gives rise to a liability, or an increased liability, to pay franking deficit tax because of the operation of subsection 205‑30(2) or (3);
the franking deficit tax or, if there is an increase in an existing liability to pay franking deficit tax, the difference between the original liability and the increased liability, is due and payable on:
(c) if the entity accounts for the liability, or increased liability, in a franking return that is outstanding for the balancing period in which the liability arose—the day on which the outstanding return is required to be given to the Commissioner; or
If:
Section 172 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if references in that section to tax included references to franking deficit tax.
Section 264 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies for the purposes of this Division as if the reference in paragraph (1)(b) of that section to a person’s income or assessment were a reference to a matter relevant to the administration or operation of this Division.
If an expression is defined in this Division, it has the meaning given in that definition, and not the meaning given in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) a franking credit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160APVJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking debit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on the assessment day:
(3) On the assessment day, a franking credit of the amount mentioned in item 2 of the table in section 219‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 arises in the new franking account in relation to a payment of the PAYG instalment mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section that was made before 1 July 2002.
(a) a franking debit arose before 1 July 2002 in the franking account of a life insurance company under former section 160AQCNCE of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to a PAYG instalment variation credit in respect of an income year; and
(c) the company has a franking account (the new franking account) under section 205‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A franking credit of the amount worked out in accordance with the following formula is taken to have arisen in the new franking account on 1 July 2002:
> Note: As the effects of former sections 160AQCNCE and 160APVN of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are not duplicated in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section ensures that a debit arising under former section 160AQCNCE before 1 July 2002 is reversed on a tax paid basis on that date if it has not been reversed under former section 160APVN before that date.
(b) the amendments of that Act made by Division 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 10 to the Taxation Laws Amendment Act (No. 6) 2003 relating to Division 220 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
In determining whether an NZ franking company meets the residency requirement for the income year including 1 April 2003 regard may be had to things that happened in relation to the company before 1 April 2003.
(1) A company that is an NZ resident may make an NZ franking choice that comes into force at the start of the company’s income year including 1 April 2003 by giving notice in the approved form to the Commissioner before the end of the next income year.
(a) a company (the Australian company) that is an Australian resident becomes a former exempting entity at a time (the switch time) because of:
(i) the period must start as soon as possible after 7.30 pm by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory on 13 May 1997 and end immediately before the switch time;
(iii) the Australian company must meet either or both of the conditions in subsections (2) and (3) for the whole of the period;
(2) One condition relating to the Australian company is that the company would not have been effectively owned by prescribed persons as described in sections 208‑25 to 208‑45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(b) an accountable membership interest or accountable partial interest in the Australian company had, at a time in the period, been held by, or indirectly for the benefit of, a post‑choice NZ franking company if, at that time:
(ii) the interest holder was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
(b) was an NZ resident or would have been one had section 220‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, and section 995‑1 of that Act so far as it relates to section 220‑20 of that Act, applied throughout the period.
> Note: This franking credit will partly or fully offset the franking debit that arises under item 1 of the table in section 208‑145 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 because the Australian company becomes a former exempting entity at the switch time.

Subdivision 235‑I of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assets acquired by the trustee of an instalment trust in:
(1) Division 242 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Division) applies to assessments for the 2010‑11 income year and later years.
(2) However, the new Division does not apply to a lease of a car if the lease was granted on or before 7.30 pm, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 20 August 1996 unless the lease was extended after that time (whether the extension took effect before or after that time).
(3) The definition of luxury car in subsection 995‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to a reduction under former section 57AF of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 or former section 42‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a reduction under section 40‑230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Sections 242‑20 and 242‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an amount included in assessable income under former Subdivision 42‑F or 42‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and former subsection 59(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the same way as they apply to an amount included in assessable income under section 40‑285 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Despite the repeal of Schedule 2C to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, that Schedule continues to apply to debts forgiven in:
(1) Subdivisions 245‑C to 245‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to a forgiveness of a debt if the forgiveness occurs in accordance with the terms of an arrangement that:
(b) is evidenced in writing otherwise than by a document evidencing the arrangement or transaction under which the debt arose.
(a) if the asset in respect of which the expenditure was incurred was disposed of by you, or was lost or destroyed, on or before 27 June 1996; or
The methodology set out in this Subdivision must be used to work out how much of an amount that a borrower incurs under or in respect of a capital protected borrowing is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under the capital protected borrowing if the capital protected borrowing is entered into or extended at or after 9.30 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 16 April 2003 and before 1 July 2007.
> Note: To work out how much of such an amount is reasonably attributable to the capital protection provided under a capital protected borrowing entered into on or after 1 July 2007, see Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) contains an explicit put option that permits the underlying investment to be sold for at least the amount borrowed or amount of credit provided and has a separate price that reasonably reflects the market value of that option;
the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is the amount specified by the lender under the capital protected borrowing as the cost of the put option.
(3) For a capital protected borrowing acquired on the secondary market, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5).
(4) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is greater than the amount of the borrowing, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(a) the sum of the market value of the instalment warrant and the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided; less
(b) the sum of the market value of the underlying security and so much of the amount incurred as is attributable to pre‑paid interest.
(5) If the market value of the underlying security at the time of acquisition is equal to or less than the amount of the borrowing or amount of credit provided, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is:
(6) If the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (4) or (5) is less than nil, the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection is nil.
(1) If section 247‑10 does not apply, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for an income year is the greater of the amount worked out using section 247‑20 (the indicator method) and section 247‑25 (the percentage method). If those amounts are the same, use either one.
(2) If an arrangement involves more than one amount incurred in an income year, the total amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the year is distributed pro‑rata between those amounts incurred.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) Work out the amount that would have been incurred by applying the relevant indicator rate to a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount for the income year.
(3) If the subsection (1) amount exceeds the subsection (2) amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
(a) for a capital protected borrowing based on a variable interest rate, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Variable Rate at the time the first payment for the income year was incurred; and
(b) for another capital protected borrowing, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s Indicator Rate for Personal Unsecured Loans—Fixed Rate at the time the borrowing was entered into.
(1) Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under subsection (1) include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(2) The amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year is this percentage of the total amount incurred for the income year:
Step 1. Work out the total amount incurred by the borrower under or in respect of the capital protected borrowing for the income year, ignoring amounts that are not in substance for capital protection or interest.
Step 2. Work out the total interest that would have been incurred for the income year on a borrowing or provision of credit of the same amount as under the capital protected borrowing at the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (2) and (3).
Step 3. If the step 1 amount exceeds the step 2 amount, the excess is reasonably attributable to the capital protection for the income year.
> Note: Example: Amounts that would be ignored under step 1 include amounts that are in substance the repayment of a loan or credit, the payment of an application fee or brokerage commission and the payment of stamp duty or other tax.
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and

(1) This section applies to a capital protected borrowing entered into at or before the 2008 Budget time (including one covered by Subdivision 247‑A or section 247‑75) where, after that time, one or both of these events occurred:
(2) Work out the amount that is reasonably attributable to the capital protection using the method statement in subsection 247‑75(1) and, for step 2 in that method statement, using the rate applicable under either or both of subsections (3) and (4) from the earlier of these times:
(a) the capital protected borrowing is at a fixed rate for all or part of the term of the capital protected borrowing; and
(b) that fixed rate is applicable to the capital protected borrowing for all or part of the income year that is at or after the switch‑over time;

(1) A superannuation provider that has been given a transitional release authority in accordance with section 292‑80B must pay to the person within 30 days after receiving the release authority the least of the following amounts:
(a) if the person requests the provider in writing to pay a specified amount in relation to the release authority—that amount;
(c) the sum of the values of every superannuation interest (other than a defined benefit interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
> Note 1: Section 288‑95 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides for an administrative penalty for failing to comply with this subsection.
> Note 2: Section 288‑100 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953 provides that the person giving the release authority to the superannuation provider can be liable to an administrative penalty if excess amounts are paid in relation to the release authority.
> Note 3: For reporting obligations on the superannuation provider in these circumstances, see section 390‑65 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
(2) The payment must be made out of one or more superannuation interests (other than a defined benefits interest) held by the superannuation provider for the person in complying superannuation plans.
(3) Section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the proportioning rule) does not apply to a payment made as required under this section.
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2015‑2016 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsection 292‑85(7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 applies after the commencement of this section as if:
(d) subsection 292‑85(6) of that Act as so amended had been applied (taking into account paragraph (c) of this subsection) for the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year.
(2) For the purposes of working out your non‑concessional contributions caps for the 2017‑2018 financial year and the 2018‑2019 financial year, if:
(a) your non‑concessional contributions cap for the 2016‑2017 financial year was worked out under subsection 292‑85(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
subsections 292‑85(6) and (7) of that Act as amended by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Fair and Sustainable Superannuation) Act 2016 apply after the commencement of this section as if the amount worked out under subsection 292‑85(5) of that Act as so amended were $380,000.
(3) To avoid doubt, this section does not affect your non‑concessional contributions cap for any financial year that ended before 1 July 2017.
The tax free component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) made in a financial year on behalf of you is not included in your non‑concessional contributions (see section 292‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) for the financial year.
(2) Subject to section 294‑55, the amendments of Division 294 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2017 Measures No. 2) Act 2017 apply on and after 1 July 2017.
Despite sections 294‑30 and 294‑140 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (which are about when you have excess transfer balance), you do not have excess transfer balance in your transfer balance account on any day in the period of 6 months beginning on 1 July 2017 if:
(a) the only transfer balance credits in the account in that period arose under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act (which is about superannuation income streams you have just before 1 July 2017); and
(b) the sum of those transfer balance credits exceeds your transfer balance cap, but is less than or equal to $1,700,000; and
(c) at the end of the period, the sum of all the transfer balance debits arising in your transfer balance account equals or exceeds the amount of the excess from paragraph (b).
(1) Despite subsection 294‑10(2), a transfer balance credit arises under item 4 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only in relation to a borrowing that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017.
(2) For the purposes of subsection (1), a borrowing (the new borrowing) that arises under a contract entered into on or after 1 July 2017 is treated as if it arose under a contract entered into before 1 July 2017 if:
(ii) covered by the exception in subsection 67A(1) of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (which is about limited recourse borrowing arrangements); and
(c) the amount of the new borrowing at the time it is first made equals, or is less than, the outstanding balance on the old borrowing just before the refinancing.
(a) on 1 July 2017, a transfer balance debit arose in your transfer balance account under item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) the sum of all the transfer balance credits that arise in your transfer balance account under item 1 of the table in subsection 294‑25(1) of that Act exceeds the amount that would, apart from this section, be the amount of that debit.
(2) Despite column 2 of item 2 of the table in subsection 294‑80(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the amount of the transfer balance debit is instead equal to the sum worked out under paragraph (1)(b) of this section.

This Subdivision applies to an entity that is the trustee of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust.
For the purposes of this Subdivision, an asset is a 30 June 1988 asset of a complying superannuation fund, a complying approved deposit fund or a pooled superannuation trust if the entity owned it at the end of 30 June 1988.
> Note: Section 295‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats these assets as having been acquired on 30 June 1988.
(1) The first element of the cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the greater of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
(2) The first element of the reduced cost base of each 30 June 1988 asset of the entity’s is the lesser of the asset’s market value (at the end of 30 June 1988) and its cost base (on that day).
the market value of the asset as at the end of 30 June 1988 is the average of the highest and lowest trade prices for identical assets recorded on 30 June 1988 in whichever of the following markets is applicable:
(d) if, on that date, there was a State capital city market (other than the Sydney market) that recorded a higher volume of trading than the Sydney market in identical assets—that State capital city market;
(2) For the purposes of this section, an asset is taken to have been listed on an Australian stock exchange on 30 June 1988 if, and only if, on that day the asset had the status of having been granted official quotation by a securities exchange within the meaning of the former Securities Industry Act 1980 or the law of a State or Territory corresponding to that former Act.
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the shares were acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the company paid an amount that was not a dividend to the entity in respect of the shares;
(b) at any time during the period commencing at the time when the interest or unit was acquired and ending at the end of 30 June 1988, the trustee of the trust paid an amount to the entity in respect of the interest or unit, being:
(i) in a case where the entity was exempt from tax for the year of income in which the payment was made—an amount that, if the entity had not been exempt from tax, would not have been the entity’s assessable income; or
the cost base to the entity of the interest or unit as at 30 June 1988 is reduced by so much of the amount as is not attributable to a deduction allowed under former Division 10C or 10D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(1) Despite section 130‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the modifications in subsections (2) and (3) of this section apply if an entity exercises rights or options as mentioned in that section to acquire:
(b) the greater of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(b) the lesser of the market value of the rights or options (at the end of 30 June 1988) and the cost base of the rights or options (on that day).
(4) The payment referred to in subsection (2) or (3) can include giving property. To the extent that the payment does, use the market value of the property in working out the amount of the payment.
(1) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1A) or (1CB) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑170 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) A notice given under subsection 82AAT(1C) or (1CD) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in relation to the 2006‑07 income year or an earlier year has effect, after 1 July 2007, as if it were a notice under section 290‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) A proportion of the ordinary income and statutory income of a continuously complying fixed interest ADF of an income year that would otherwise be assessable income is exempt from income tax under this section. The proportion is worked out under subsection (3).

> Aggregate current balance is the total amount deposited with the fund (together with accumulated earnings), as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
> Aggregate of current 25 May balances is the aggregate of the current 25 May balances of eligible depositors, as at the reckoning time in relation to the income year.
(4) A choice for the purposes of the definition of reckoning time in subsection (5) must be made on or before the date of lodgment of the income tax return of the ADF for the income year to which the choice relates, or before a later day allowed by the Commissioner.
> continuously complying fixed interest ADF, in relation to an income year (the current year), means a fund that is a fixed interest complying ADF in relation to each of the following years:
> current 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor as at the reckoning time, is the balance as at that time determined by varying the original 25 May balance, in accordance with the following rules, during the period from 26 May 1988 to the reckoning time:
(b) subject to paragraph (a), an amount deposited with the ADF by the depositor before 1 September 1989 is to be added to the balance;

> fixed interest complying ADF, in relation to a year of income, means a complying ADF where both of the following conditions are satisfied:
(a) not less than 90% of the amount that, apart from this section, would be the assessable income of the ADF of the income year (other than non‑arm’s length income or amounts included in assessable income under Subdivision 295‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) consists of any one or more of the following:
(ii) any profit arising on the disposal, redemption, cancellation or maturity of a CGT asset referred to in paragraph 295‑85(3)(b) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997;
(iii) an amount included in assessable income under Division 16E of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (or would be so included if Division 230 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 did not apply);
(ii) virtual PST life insurance policies (as defined in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997) issued by a life insurance company.
> original 25 May balance, in relation to an eligible depositor, means the amount of the deposits (together with accumulated earnings) standing to the credit of the depositor as at the end of 25 May 1988.

(6) This section does not apply to an ADF in relation to an income year unless the whole of the benefit that would accrue to the ADF from the application of this section in relation to the income year has been, or can reasonably expected to be, passed on to eligible depositors.
An election made by the trustee of a complying superannuation fund under subsection 279(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 that had effect for the income year of the fund in which 30 June 2007 occurs continues to have effect as if it had been made under section 295‑465 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Subdivisions 295‑I (no‑TFN contributions) and 295‑J (Tax offset for no‑TFN contributions income (TFN quoted within 4 years)) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply to an entity whose 2006‑2007 income year ends on a day (the end day) after 1 July 2007 as if:
(b) the entity’s no‑TFN contributions income for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year included contributions made during that period that would have been income of that kind for the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year if the contributions concerned had been made in the entity’s 2007‑2008 income year.
(2) Division 301 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section because you are a member of the fund in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation member benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a superannuation income stream benefit is taken to be a disability superannuation benefit if, just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (b) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
Subdivision 301‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to income years starting on or after 1 July 2007.

(b) the amendments of the Income Tax Assessment (1997 Act) Regulations 2021 made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023.
(a) a superannuation benefit (the trigger benefit) was paid to a person in the 2020‑21 income year or an earlier income year; and
(c) the trigger benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; and
(2) The Commissioner cannot amend an assessment on the basis that a superannuation benefit paid to the person is a superannuation income stream benefit because of the amendments made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023 if:
(iii) the superannuation benefit was paid to the person because the person satisfied a condition of release specified in item 103 (permanent incapacity) of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994;
(3) Subsection (2) applies despite any other provision of this Act (apart from subsection (4) of this section), the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) if the Commissioner may amend the assessment in accordance with item 5 (fraud or evasion) or 6 (review or appeal) of the table in subsection 170(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936;
(b) if the amendment is made for the purpose of giving effect to a provision specified in the regulations for the purposes of this paragraph.
(1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make rules prescribing matters of a transitional nature (including prescribing any saving or application provisions) that:
(a) relate to the amendments or repeals made by Schedule 9 to the Treasury Laws Amendment (2022 Measures No. 4) Act 2023; and
(2) Without limiting subsection (1), rules made under this section before the end of the period of 12 months starting on the day that Schedule commences may provide that provisions of that Schedule, or any other Act or instrument, have effect with any modifications prescribed by the rules. Those provisions then have effect as if they were so modified.
(2) Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to payments to you from a foreign superannuation fund covered by this section after another person’s death, because the other person was a member of that fund, in the same way as it would apply if the payments were superannuation death benefits paid to you from a complying superannuation fund.
For the purposes of Division 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat a person who receives a superannuation income stream benefit as a death benefits dependant in relation to the benefit if:
(b) just before 1 July 2007, the superannuation income stream from which the benefit is paid was covered by paragraph (a) of the definition of death or disability annuity/pension in section 159SJ of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 82‑B of Division 82, Division 302 and section 303‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the definition of death benefits dependant in section 302‑195 of that Act applies as if paragraphs (a) and (b) of the definition were replaced with the following paragraphs:
(a) a spouse of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008 or a person who was formerly such a spouse; or
(b) a child of the deceased within the meaning of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 as in force immediately after the commencement of Schedule 4 to the Same‑Sex Relationships (Equal Treatment in Commonwealth Laws—Superannuation) Act 2008, who is aged less than 18.
(ii) a superannuation guarantee payment, a small superannuation account payment, an unclaimed money payment, a superannuation co‑contribution benefit payment or a superannuation annuity payment.
(2) The lump sum is not assessable income and is not exempt income if a terminal medical condition exists in relation to you at a time in the period:
(i) a condition of release specified in item 107A or 207AA of the table in Schedule 1 to the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994; or
(ii) a condition of release specified in item 109AA of the table in Schedule 2 to the Retirement Savings Accounts Regulations 1997.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation benefit that you receive, paid in relation to a release authority given in relation to you in accordance with section 292‑80B.
(2) The superannuation benefit is not assessable income and is not exempt income to the extent that it does not exceed the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(3) The amount is the amount of excess non‑concessional contributions stated in the release authority in accordance with paragraph 292‑80A(3)(a), reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not exempt income under a previous operation of subsection (2) in relation to the release authority.
(4) The superannuation benefit is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection (3).
(a) you have an interest in a FIF (within the meaning of Part XI of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of item 37 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Foreign Source Income Deferral) Act (No. 1) 2010) (the paying fund); and
(b) Subdivision 305‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the paying fund (see section 305‑55 of that Act); and
(c) the paying fund transfers an amount to a complying superannuation fund in respect of you during the deduction year; and
(d) you choose under section 305‑80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 that the amount, or part of the amount, is to be treated as assessable income of the complying superannuation fund; and
(e) immediately before the transfer happens, there is a post‑FIF abolition surplus (within the meaning of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) for the paying fund in relation to you; and
For the purposes of the definition of specified roll‑over amount in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, treat the taxable component of a directed termination payment (within the meaning of section 82‑10F) as the element untaxed in the fund of a superannuation benefit that is a roll‑over superannuation benefit.
(1) This section applies to a superannuation income stream from which at least one superannuation income stream benefit has been paid before 1 July 2007.
> Note: This section also applies to an income stream replacing an earlier one because of an involuntary roll‑over (see section 307‑127).
(2) Despite subsection 307‑125(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, work out the tax free component of superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation income stream in an income year beginning on or after 1 July 2007 as follows:
(a) first, work out the deductible amount in relation to the superannuation income stream for the income year including 30 June 2007 in accordance with section 27H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (as in force just before 1 July 2007);
(b) next, allocate the deductible amount worked out under paragraph (a) to each of those benefits in proportion to the amount of those benefits.
The amount allocated to a superannuation income stream benefit under paragraph (b) is the tax free component of the benefit. The taxable component of the benefit is the remainder of the benefit.
(3) Subsection (2) does not apply to the payment of a superannuation income stream benefit after at least one of the following events has happened:
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day;
(ba) the holder of the superannuation interest is aged 60 or above on 1 July 2007, if none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund;
(i) none of the superannuation income stream benefits paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007 consist of, or include, an element untaxed in the fund; or
(ii) where no superannuation income stream benefits have been paid from the superannuation interest after 30 June 2007—all payments from the interest on or before that day would have satisfied the requirement in subparagraph (i) if they had been paid after that day.
(a) treat the time mentioned in subsection (5) as the applicable time for the purposes of subsection 307‑125(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to the benefit; and
(b) work out the tax free component of the superannuation interest for the purposes of section 307‑125 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 under subsections (6) and (6A).
(i) an eligible termination payment had been made in respect of the holder of the interest just before the time mentioned in subsection (5); and
(ii) the amount of the eligible termination payment had been equal to the value of the superannuation interest at that time;

(2) The following provisions apply as if you are a small business entity for the income year in which you are winding up the business:
#### 328‑112 Working out whether you are a small business entity for certain small business concessions—entities connected with you
(1) For the purpose of working out whether you are a small business entity for the 2007‑08, 2008‑09, 2009‑10 or 2010‑11 income year (each a relevant income year) for the purposes of a provision to which subsection (3) applies:

(2) This section also sets out what happens to your ordinary income and general deductions, and deductions under section 25‑5 or 25‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if:

(b) the closing pool balance of your long life small business pool for the 2011‑12 income year, reduced or increased by any adjustment required under that section.
(1) This section applies if you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer for the 2005‑06 income year or the 2006‑07 income year.
(2) You cannot choose to use new Subdivision 328‑D to deduct amounts for your depreciating assets until at least 5 years after the income year for which you chose to stop being an STS taxpayer.

(d) you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose at a time (the start time) that is:
(e) you are a small business entity, or an entity covered by subsection (4), for the income year that includes the start time; and
(h) the only balancing adjustment events that occur for the asset at a time during the period starting on 1 July 2023 and ending on 30 June 2024 occur because you stop holding the asset because of an event or circumstance referred to in subsection 40‑365(2) (about involuntary disposals) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that uses a fossil fuel (other than a use of which that is merely incidental) is available in the market at the start time;
(ii) if the asset is being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than the other asset;
(iii) if the asset is not being acquired by way of replacement of or substitution for another depreciating asset—the asset is more energy efficient than a new reasonably comparable depreciating asset that is available in the market at the start time; or
(i) a depreciating asset (other than an asset excluded under subsection (6)) that uses electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, to be more energy efficient;
(iv) the use of electricity, or energy that is generated from a renewable source, by another depreciating asset to be monitored.

> Note: Subsections (1) and (3) also do not apply to an item of trading stock because such an asset is not a depreciating asset: see section 40‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
A reference in each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a registration under section 27A of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 includes a reference to a registration under former section 39J of that Act:
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity; and
(b) the R&D entity cannot deduct an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from:

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑315(2) of the new Act that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:
is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 355‑315(3) of the new Act:

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
> total decline in value means the asset’s cost, less its adjustable value, worked out under Division 40 of the new Act as it applies as described in subsection (2).
(4A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 for the asset, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if an amount is taken to be included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the event year as mentioned in subsection (4) of this section—a clawback amount under section 355‑446 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount mentioned in subsection (4B) of this section; or
(b) if the R&D entity is taken to be able to deduct an amount as mentioned in subsection (3) of this section—a catch up amount under section 355‑465 of the new Act for the income year equal to the amount of that deduction.

> adjusted section 40‑285 amount means so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.

(b) former section 73BF of the old Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: Section 355‑315 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by an R&D partnership; and

(i) the R&D partnership could deduct for the event year an amount under subsection 40‑285(2) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event; or
(ii) an amount would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act for the asset and the balancing adjustment event.

if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the partner is taken to be able to deduct under subsection 355‑525(2) of the new Act the partner’s proportion of that amount for the event year.
(4) If an amount (the section 40‑285 amount) would be included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the event year under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act for the asset and the event if Division 40 of that Act applied as described in subsection (2) of this section, the sum of:

Item 7 of the table in subsection 57‑110(2) in Schedule 2D to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applies as if the deduction rules set out in the final column of that item also included former sections 73BA and 73BH of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
For the purposes of step 1 of the method statement in subsection 355‑415(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, also disregard amounts that have already been taken into account under former subsection 73B(14AA) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 for the R&D entity, the grouped entity and the R&D activities for an earlier income year.
(1) This section applies if, apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company could deduct advance R and D expenditure in one or more income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under former section 73B of that Act as that former section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(a) apart from Subdivision H (prepaid expenditure) of Division 3 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, an eligible company can deduct an amount under former section 73B, 73BA, 73BH, 73QA, 73QB or 73Y of that Act for an income year commencing before 1 July 2011; and
(c) apart from former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act, the eligible company could deduct an amount, as a result of that application of that Subdivision, for an income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
> Note: That deduction would be under that Act as it applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(3) Former paragraph 73B(10)(a) of that Act is taken to apply to those income years commencing on or after 1 July 2011 as if the reference in that former paragraph to section 39J of the Industry Research and Development Act 1986 were a reference to section 27A of that Act.
(4) An expression used in this section that is also used in former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 has the same meaning in this section as it has in that former section.
This Subdivision applies to core technology (within the meaning of former section 73B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) if:
(a) you incurred core technology expenditure (within the meaning of that former section) in an income year commencing before 1 July 2011 in relation to the core technology under one or more contracts entered into at or after the time referred to in former subsection 73B(12) of that Act; and
(b) that expenditure (the undeducted expenditure) cannot be deducted for the last income year commencing before 1 July 2011.
(1) This section applies for the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, other than sections 40‑292 and 40‑293 of that Act, if the core technology (the asset) is a depreciating asset.
(2) Disregard this section, including its effect on the amount you can deduct under section 40‑25 of that Act for the asset, for the purposes of working out:
(3) The asset’s opening adjustable value for the first income year that commences on or after 1 July 2011 (the first new income year) is equal to the amount of the undeducted expenditure.
(4) Subsection 40‑75(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the asset as if the first new income year were a change year (within the meaning of that subsection).
If the core technology is not a depreciating asset, you can deduct the undeducted expenditure in equal proportions over a period of 5 income years starting in the first income year commencing on or after 1 July 2011.
To work out the film component (if any) of your tax loss for the 1997‑98 income year or a later income year, apply former section 375‑805 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
If you incurred a film loss for the purposes of former section 79F (Film losses of 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 years of income) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years, that film loss is the film component of your tax loss for that income year.
(1) To work out your film loss (if any) for the purposes of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the 1989‑90 or a later income year, apply former section 375‑810 of that Act.
(2) You can deduct in the 1997‑98 or a later income year your film loss for any of the 1989‑90 to 1996‑97 income years only to the extent that it has not already been deducted.
(1) Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to assessments for the 1998‑99 income year and later income years.
(a) it had applied to your assessment for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year for which Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied in relation to your income; and
(b) you had carried on a primary production business during each income year before the 1998‑99 income year when you carried on a business of primary production; and
(c) for each income year before the 1998‑99 income year you had a basic taxable income equal to your taxable income for the income year for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
> Note: Section 149A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 identifies what your taxable income for an income year is for the purposes of Division 16 of Part III of that Act.
Division 392 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to your assessment for the 1998‑99 income year or a later income year if you made an election under section 158A (Election that Division not apply) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 relating to an income year before the 1998‑99 income year.
393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
A reference in Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to a deduction under section 393‑5 of that Act for making a farm management deposit is taken to include a reference to a deduction under section 393‑10 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force just before the commencement of this section, if the deposit was made before the 2010‑11 income year.
#### 393‑10 Unrecouped FMD deduction for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
(b) the deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request to which section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, applied;
the unrecouped FMD deduction in respect of the deposit at that time is equal to the amount of the unrecouped deduction (within the meaning of the former subsection 159GA(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the deposit immediately before it ceased to be a deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976.
> Note: This means that the unrecouped deduction relating to the deposit under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 continues to apply (by becoming an unrecouped FMD deduction) when the deposit is transferred to an FMD provider as a farm management deposit. The Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976 was repealed on 22 February 2005.
If a beneficiary of a trust was covered by paragraph (c) of the definition of primary producer in section 393‑25 in Schedule 2G to the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 in the 2009‑10 income year, treat subsection 393‑25(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as having applied to the beneficiary for the purpose of determining the maximum number of choices that the trustee may make under subsection 393‑27(2) of that Act for the 2010‑11 income year.
(a) a farm management deposit of an owner was unclaimed moneys for the purposes of section 69 of the Banking Act 1959; and
(2) For the purpose of subsection 393‑10(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act, treat the repaid unclaimed moneys as a repayment of the deposit of the owner.
(3) To avoid doubt, the payment of unclaimed moneys to the Commonwealth under section 69 of the Banking Act 1959 is not a repayment of the deposit of the owner for the purposes of Division 393 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
#### 393‑40 The day the deposit was made for deposits made as a result of section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976
If a farm management deposit was made with an FMD provider as a result of a request under section 25B of the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976, as in force on 21 February 2005, then:
(a) subsections 393‑40(1) to (4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply as if the day the deposit was made was the day on which the deposit was originally made under the Loan (Income Equalization Deposits) Act 1976; and
(1) A copyright collecting society to which section 51‑43 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, may elect that, from 1 July 2004, the section apply to all ordinary income, and statutory income, collected or derived by the society on or after 1 July 2004.
Division 420 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to a registered emissions unit held by you unless you became the holder of the unit after the commencement of that Division.
Subdivision 615‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you with the modifications set out in this Subdivision if you chose to obtain a roll‑over involving \*shares or units that:
(b) were your trading stock, or revenue assets, at the time immediately before that disposal, redemption or cancellation.
(1) Disregard subparagraph 615‑45(a)(ii), and paragraph 615‑45(b), of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if the roll‑over relates to \*shares that were disposed of, redeemed or cancelled.
(2) For each of the \*shares in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were your \*trading stock at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

(2) For the purpose of calculating any profit or loss on a future disposal, cessation of ownership, or other realisation of a \*share in the interposed company that you acquired in return for those of your shares or units in the original entity that were \*revenue assets at the time mentioned in paragraph 615‑45(c), you are taken to have paid:

Subdivision 620‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the cessation of existence of bodies corporate occurring after 7.30 pm (by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory) on 11 May 2010.
(1) Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation) Act (No. 1) 2002 and amended by:
(2) Section 713‑50 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about factors to consider in determining destination of distribution by non‑fixed trust) applies for the purposes of this Part in the same way as it applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of that Act.
### Division 701—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for certain consolidated groups formed in 2002‑3 and 2003‑4 financial years
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(i) at no time after 1 July 2002 and before the group came into existence was the entity a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity (the future head company) that became the head company of the group; or
(ii) at some time during that period, the entity was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company and it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(a) the group is a transitional group if at least one entity that became a subsidiary member of the group on the day the group came into existence is a transitional entity; and
(ii) it remained such from the earliest time after 1 July 2002 when it was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the future head company until the group came into existence.
(1) If a group is a transitional group, its head company may, subject to subsection (3), choose that the group’s transitional entity is a chosen transitional entity, or one or more of the group’s transitional entities are chosen transitional entities.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(3) If the choice is to be made after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2)(a) and before the end of the day mentioned in paragraph (2)(b), it cannot be made unless each entity in relation to which the conditions in subsection (5) are satisfied has agreed to it being made.
(a) the entity (the leaving entity) ceased to be a subsidiary member of the group before the choice was made (in a subsection (3) case) or before the revocation took place (in a subsection (4) case); and
(b) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member; and
(c) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when a chosen transitional entity (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
Section 716‑855 applies for the purposes of this Division in the same way as that section applies for the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
is a reference to that provision as it applies to the group, or to the allocable cost amount as it is worked out for the entity, in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act and with this Division.
701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
Section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets of joining entity) and subsection 701‑35(4) (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 do not apply to the assets of a chosen transitional entity.
> Note: The fact that the head company inherits the entity’s history under section 701‑5 of that Act when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the group means that the entity’s assets would be treated as having the same cost as they would for the entity at that time.
#### 701‑20 Working out allocable cost amount on formation for subsidiary members other than chosen transitional entities
(2) If this section applies, the group’s allocable cost amount for each of the entities, other than a chosen transitional entity, that become subsidiary members when the group comes into existence (each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary) is worked out in a special way.
(b) for each sub‑group (see subsection (6)) that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary—the sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount (see subsection(5)) for the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(4) The head company adjusted allocable amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary is the amount that would be the transitional group’s allocable cost amount for that entity if;
(b) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of head company’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the head company holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that become subsidiary members of the group at that time and are not included in any sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary.
(5) For each sub‑group that exists in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary, there is a sub‑group’s notional allocable cost amount. That amount is the amount that would be a consolidated group’s allocable cost amount for the non‑chosen subsidiary if:
(a) the consolidated group came into existence at the same time as the transitional group and consisted only of the non‑chosen subsidiary and the entities comprising the sub‑group; and
(c) the only membership interests that any entity held at or before that time in any other entity that became a member of the consolidated group were the sub‑group membership interests (see subsection (6)) in relation to the sub‑group, and any such entity held those membership interests during the period when it actually held them; and
(d) only the following proportion of each of the step 2 to step 7 amounts in the table in section 705‑60 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 was taken into account:

market value of all membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that are held by entities that become members of the group at that time.
market value of chosen transitional entity’s direct and indirect membership interests in non‑chosen subsidiary means the market value, at the time the group comes into existence, of all membership interests in the non‑chosen subsidiary that the chosen transitional entity holds directly or indirectly through interposed entities that are included in the sub‑group.
(6) If a chosen transitional entity holds membership interests in a non‑chosen subsidiary, either directly or indirectly through one or more other entities, each of which is a non‑chosen subsidiary:
(a) the chosen transitional entity and each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary comprise a sub‑group in relation to the non‑chosen subsidiary (unless the non‑chosen subsidiary is included in a sub‑group in relation to another non‑chosen subsidiary); and
(i) the membership interests that the chosen transitional entity holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries;
(ii) the membership interests that each interposed non‑chosen subsidiary holds directly in the non‑chosen subsidiary or in any of the other interposed non‑chosen subsidiaries.
#### 701‑25 No operation of value shifting and loss transfer provisions to membership interests in chosen transitional entities
If any provision of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would, because of events that happened before the time the transitional group came into existence, apply to a CGT event that happens after that time to change the cost base or reduced cost base of the members’ membership interests in a chosen transitional entity, the provision does not so apply.
> Note: For example, such a provision could otherwise apply where a loss transfer or value shift involving the entity has occurred.
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of applying section 705‑70 (step 2 of allocable cost amount) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in relation to a transitional entity.
(2) In spite of subsection 705‑70(1A) of that Act, if the amount of an accounting liability of the transitional entity would be different when it becomes an accounting liability of the transitional group, that difference is not taken into account in working out the amount of the liability.
#### 701‑35 Act, transaction or event giving rise to CGT event for pre‑formation roll‑over after 16 May 2002 to be disregarded if cost base etc. would be different
(a) after 16 May 2002 and before the transitional group came into existence, a CGT event happened in relation to an asset (the roll‑over asset) for which there was:
(ii) roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of that Act in a case covered by item 4 of the table in subsection (1) of that section; and
(i) became an asset of the head company when the transitional group came into existence because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of that Act applies; or
differs at that time from what it would have been if the act, transaction or event that gave rise to the CGT event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset;
then the provisions mentioned in subsection (2) apply as if the act, transaction or event had not occurred in relation to the roll‑over asset.
(a) the act, transaction or event mentioned in subsection (1) happened before a demerger and in connection with the demerger; and
(b) before the transitional group came into existence, at least one of the following entities ceased to be a member of the demerger group because of the demerger:
(i) the originating company in relation to the roll‑over, or the transferor in relation to the roll‑over relief, was a foreign resident; and
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary of the group.
#### 701‑40 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to increase terminating values of over‑depreciated assets
(1) This section applies if an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group and the requirements of subsections (2) to (4) are satisfied.
(2) Just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member, it must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, hold an asset.
(a) the asset must have become that of the head company of the transitional group because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applied in relation to a transitional entity; and
(b) former section 705‑50 of that Act must have reduced by an amount (the reduction amount) the tax cost setting amount for the asset.
(4) The asset must, disregarding subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act, have been held at all times by the head company or a subsidiary member of the transitional group from when the transitional group came into existence until the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group.
(6) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is increased by so much of the reduction amount as the head company chooses.
#### 701‑45 When entity leaves transitional group, head company may choose, for purposes of transitional group’s allocable cost amount, to use formation time market values, instead of terminating values, for certain pre‑CGT assets
(b) just before the transitional group came into existence, the entity that became the head company held a pre‑CGT asset; and
(d) just before the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, the asset is still a pre‑CGT asset and is held by the head company only because the entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company.
(2) If this section applies, the head company may, in relation to the entity’s ceasing to be a subsidiary member, choose that the terminating value for the asset, that is to be used in applying step 1 of the table in section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, is equal to its market value just before the transitional group came into existence.
#### 701‑50 Increased allocable cost amount for leaving entity if it takes privatised asset brought into group by chosen transitional entity
(1) This section provides for an addition to the step 1 amount for working out under section 711‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 the allocable cost amount for an entity (the leaving entity) that ceases to be a subsidiary member of the transitional group at a time (the leaving time), if:
(a) the head company of the group holds an asset at the leaving time because the leaving entity is taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act to be a part of the head company; and
(b) the head company started to hold the asset because of that subsection when a chosen transitional entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
(b) just after that time, some or all of that entity’s ordinary income and statutory income became assessable income because another entity that later became a member of the transitional group purchased all the membership interests in the entity; and
(c) the amount of the purchase price reasonably attributable to the asset exceeded the amount worked out under subsection (3);

(a) on or after 4 August 1997, an entity (whether the chosen transitional entity or another entity) acquired the asset in connection with the acquisition of a business from the tax exempt vendor (within the meaning of those terms given by Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as that Division applied to the acquisition); and
(b) because of the acquisition, that Division directly or indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset; and

> Note 2: Division 58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 may, for example, have indirectly affected how much the chosen transitional entity could deduct for the asset because:
(a) that Division affected the amount that could be deducted by an entity that held the asset before the chosen transitional entity; and
### Division 701A—Modified application of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for entities with continuing majority ownership from 27 June 2002 until joining a consolidated group
701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(b) a person or persons continued to be the majority owners (see subsection (2)) of the entity from the start of 27 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group;
(2) A person or persons are the majority owners of an entity if they beneficially own, directly or indirectly through one or more interposed entities, membership interests in the entity whose market value is more than 50% of the market value of all of the membership interests in the entity.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2), if the interposed entity or any of the interposed entities is a trust that is not a fixed trust:
#### 701A‑5 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to trading stock of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is trading stock just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 70‑45 to 70‑70 of that Act.
For head company, trading stock to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑7 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to registered emissions units of continuing majority‑owned entity
(1) The operation of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is modified in accordance with this section in relation to each asset of a continuing majority‑owned entity that is a registered emissions unit just before the entity becomes a subsidiary member of the entity’s designated group.
(b) instead, the value of the asset at the end of the income year that ends, or, if section 701‑30 of that Act applies, of the income year that is taken by subsection (3) of that section to end, is the value determined in accordance with sections 420‑51 to 420‑58 of that Act.
For head company, registered emissions units to be retained cost base asset with tax cost setting amount equal to entity’s year‑end valuation
(3) For the head company core purposes when the continuing majority‑owned entity becomes a subsidiary member of the designated group, the asset is a retained cost base asset whose tax cost setting amount is equal to the value applicable in accordance with paragraph (2)(b).
#### 701A‑10 Modified application of Part 3‑90 of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to certain internally generated assets of continuing majority‑owned entity
(a) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, a depreciating asset becomes that of the head company of a continuing majority‑owned entity’s designated group when the entity becomes a subsidiary member of that group; and
(b) the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset is less than the asset’s tax cost setting amount; and
(d) more than half of the expenditure incurred in constructing or creating the asset was of a revenue nature and allowable as a deduction to the entity (whether or not the continuing majority‑owned entity) that constructed or created the asset; and
(e) for every balancing adjustment event occurring for the asset before the continuing majority‑owned entity became a subsidiary member of the group, there was roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) while the asset is, because subsection 701‑1(1) of that Act applies, that of the head company of the designated group, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, its tax cost setting amount is taken to be equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(b) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset, or the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group, and:
(iii) if a balancing adjustment event occurs for the asset—the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the head company for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset; or
(iv) if the head company ceases to hold the asset because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the group—the group’s allocable cost amount worked out under section 711‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the entity is increased by the shortfall.
Note: The asset’s actual tax cost setting amount would be used for the purpose of working out any balancing adjustment for a balancing adjustment event or for working out the terminating value of the asset under Division 711 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value;
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset becomes that of an entity (a new asset holder) other than the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceases to apply when the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of the designated group as a result of a third entity (the buyer of the new asset holder) acquiring some or all of the membership interests in the new asset holder; and
(i) the buyer of the new asset holder controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group, or vice versa; or
(ii) a third entity controls (for value shifting purposes) the head company of the designated group and the buyer of the new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the cessation, worked out on the assumption that the head company had acquired the asset for an amount equal to the continuing majority‑owned entity’s terminating value for the asset;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
(a) the asset is acquired by another entity (a new asset holder) from an entity that is a new asset holder under subsection (3) or (5) or a previous application of this subsection; and
(i) was a party to the acquisition and, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the other party; or
(ii) was not a party to each acquisition but, at the time of the acquisition, controlled (for value shifting purposes) the parties to the acquisition; and
(c) that entity was also the entity whose control (for value shifting purposes) resulted in the control test being satisfied in respect of each previous acquisition or cessation involving a new asset holder; and
(i) the asset’s adjustable value (the roll‑over adjustable value) just before the acquisition, worked out on the assumption that every previous new asset holder had acquired the asset for the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value, worked out under subsection (3) or (5) or this subsection, just before it did so;
(a) while the asset is held by the new asset holder, for the purpose of working out deductions for the asset’s decline in value under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the acquisition by the new asset holder is taken to have been for an amount equal to the asset’s roll‑over adjustable value asset just before the acquisition; and
then the shortfall is allowable as a deduction to the new asset holder for the income year in which it ceases to hold the asset.
701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
#### 701B‑1 Modified application of CGT Consolidation provisions to allow immediate availability of capital loss for CGT event L1
(b) members of the consolidated group or the MEC group mentioned in subsection 104‑500(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 held all of the membership interests in the entity mentioned in that subsection from the end of 30 June 2002 until the entity became a subsidiary member of the group; and
(c) before the end of the fourth income year of the head company of the group ending after the entity became a subsidiary member of the group, the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member; and
(d) all of the assets, other than those excepted under subsection (2), that the head company held when the entity became a subsidiary member, because the entity was taken by subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity principle) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company, continued to be held by the head company until the entity ceased to be a subsidiary member.
(a) the head company disposed of in the ordinary course of a business that the head company carried on by virtue of the entity being taken by subsection 701‑1(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be a part of the head company; and
(3) If this section applies, neither subsection 104‑500(4) nor subsection 104‑500(5) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies in relation to the head company for the income year in which the entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of any later income year.
### Division 701C—Modified application etc. of provisions of Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: transitional foreign‑held membership structures
(a) sets out, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, rules that allow certain entities to be subsidiary members of consolidatable groups or consolidated groups where other entities are interposed between them and the head company of the group (see Subdivision 701C‑B); and
(b) modifies certain rules in Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 relating to setting the tax cost of assets to take account of those membership rules (see Subdivision 701C‑C).
> Note: This Division has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group (see sections 719‑2 and 719‑10 of this Act).
701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
#### 701C‑10 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a company
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(ii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(b) a trust (a non‑resident trust) that does not meet the requirements in any item of the table in section 703‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(d) an entity that holds membership interests in an entity interposed between it and the test entity, or in the test entity, only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a member of the group, a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that non‑resident companies and non‑resident trusts were subsidiary members
(5) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if each interposed entity that is a non‑resident company or non‑resident trust were a subsidiary member of the group.
(7) If the group is a consolidated group and the test time is the time at which the group comes into existence as a consolidated group, the test time must be before 1 July 2004.
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(d) from the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group until the test time, the test entity must have been a subsidiary member of the group; and
(e) at the time the group came into existence as a consolidated group, one or more of the membership interests in the test entity must have been held by an entity of a kind mentioned in subparagraph (c)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv).
#### 701C‑15 Additional membership rules where entities are interposed between the head company and a subsidiary member—case where an interposed entity is a foreign resident and the subsidiary member is a trust or partnership
(1) This section describes, for the purposes of item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a set of requirements that must be met for an entity (the test entity) to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group or a consolidatable group at a particular time (the test time).
> Note: This subsection applies in relation to a MEC group as if the reference to item 2, column 4 of the table in subsection 703‑15(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 were a reference to subparagraph 719‑10(1)(b)(iii) of that Act (see subsection 719‑2(3) of this Act).
(3) At the test time, one or more of the interposed entities must be companies that are subsidiary members of the group because the set of requirements in section 701C‑10 are met.
Test entity must be a subsidiary member on assumption that head company beneficially owned all membership interests beneficially owned by subsection (3) companies
(4) At the test time, it must be the case that the test entity would be a subsidiary member of the group if the head company beneficially owned all the membership interests beneficially owned by each company described in subsection (3).
If:
(a) an entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group in a case where the set of requirements described in section 701C‑10 are met; and
(iii) an entity that holds the membership interests only as a nominee of one or more entities each of which is a non‑resident company or a non‑resident trust; or
(ii) an entity that is a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary of the group because of another application of this paragraph;
Note: In order to be a subsidiary member of the group as required by subparagraph (d)(iii), the transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary would need to have satisfied the set of requirements in either section 701C‑10 or 701C‑15
(1) This Subdivision applies if an entity (the transitional foreign‑held joining entity) that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary or a transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the time (the formation time) the group comes into existence.
(2) The object of this Subdivision is to ensure that, on becoming a subsidiary member at the formation time, the tax cost of the assets of any transitional foreign‑held subsidiary is not set and that the tax cost setting amount for assets of any transitional foreign‑held indirect subsidiary that becomes a subsidiary member at that time takes account of this.
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
Subsection 701‑35(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (setting value of trading stock at tax‑neutral amount) does not apply to the assets of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity if it is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary.
Section 701‑15 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following subsection were added at the end of the section:
(a) this section applies to each membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by an entity (an eligible non‑resident) of a kind mentioned in subparagraph 701C‑20(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997 in the same way as it applies to a membership interest in the transitional foreign‑held subsidiary that is held by the head company; and
(b) for that purpose, the definition of head company core purposes in subsection 701‑1(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to the eligible non‑resident in the same way as it applies to the head company.
Section 711‑5 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the following note were added at the end of the section:
> Note: If the leaving entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary (within the meaning of section 701C‑20 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997), this Division will, in accordance with subsection 701‑15(4) of this Act (see section 701C‑40 of the first‑mentioned Act), apply to membership interests that an eligible non‑resident mentioned in that subsection holds in the entity in the same way as it applies to membership interests that the head company holds in the entity.
(1) The object of this Division is to allow an entity that is a potential subsidiary member of a consolidated group to utilise an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) during a transitional period, rather than have the head company utilise the loss subject to the restrictions in Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) Therefore, this Division allows the head company to prevent the entity from being a subsidiary member of the group, for a transitional period.
(1) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and this Act have effect as if an entity (the transitional foreign loss maker) is not a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a particular time (the transitional time) if:
(b) apart from this section, the transitional foreign loss maker would be a subsidiary member of the group at the transitional time; and
(d) the head company of the group has made a choice under section 701D‑15 to apply this section to the transitional foreign loss maker; and
(2) The continuous ownership condition is satisfied if the transitional foreign loss maker was a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group throughout the period:
(a) the transitional foreign loss maker incurred an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) in respect of the 2001‑02 income year or an earlier income year; and
(b) the amount of the overall foreign loss has not been fully taken into account under one or more applications of former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 to the transitional foreign loss maker in relation to an income year or income years ending before the transitional time; and
(c) assuming that the transitional foreign loss maker had become a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the formation time, as a result all or part of the overall foreign loss would have been transferred at that time to the head company of the group under Division 707 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(ii) assuming that the head company of the group (rather than the transitional foreign loss maker) held that interest or those interests, none of those other entities would be a subsidiary member of the group.
(5) To avoid doubt, subsection (1) does not prevent the transitional foreign loss maker from being a member of a consolidatable group at the transitional time for the purposes of:
(1) The head company of a consolidated group may make a choice in the approved form to apply section 701D‑10 to another entity.
(2) However, the head company cannot make that choice if subsection 701D‑10(1) previously prevented the entity from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group.
(a) the day on which the head company must give the notice under section 703‑58 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (notice of choice to consolidate); and
(a) an asset of the head company because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies; or
(b) an asset of another entity, where it became such an asset as a result of that subsection ceasing to apply on the entity ceasing to be a subsidiary member of the group;
then, despite certain provisions of that Act applying, in accordance with subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act, as if the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount:
Note: This means that Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 continues not to apply to an asset that is a mining, quarrying or prospecting right.
(d) subsection 40‑77(2) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the cost of the asset were a reference to the cost worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount; and
(e) subsection 40‑77(3) continues to apply to the asset, but applies as if the reference in that subsection to the amount included in assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of that Act were a reference to the amount so worked out on the basis that the asset were acquired for a payment equal to its tax cost setting amount.
(b) after the asset became an asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity became a subsidiary member of the group.
It does not matter whether or not the final entity is the same as the head company or the entity mentioned in paragraph (b).
> Note: The final entity will be different from the head company if an entity (the leaving entity) took the asset with it when leaving the group, whether or not the leaving entity brought the asset into another consolidated group before the asset came to be held by the final entity.
(2) The final entity is entitled to a further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act for the balancing adjustment event if the final entity would have been entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating at any time before the event occurred.
> Note: The final entity will be entitled to the deduction apart from paragraph 701‑55(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 only if the entity is treated as having depreciated the asset under former Division 42 of that Act, because of section 701‑5 (the entry history rule) of that Act and perhaps also section 701‑40 (the exit history rule) of that Act.
(3) However, the final entity is not entitled to the deduction if, at a time before the balancing adjustment event occurred:
(a) the asset became the asset of the head company of a consolidated group because of section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applying when an entity (the joining entity) became a subsidiary member of the group; and
It does not matter whether or not the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (a) of this subsection is the same change as the change in status of the asset described in paragraph (1)(b).
> Note: In some cases, section 705‑47 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 reduces the tax cost setting amount for a depreciating asset to the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, so that subsection (3) of this section will not prevent the final entity from getting the further deduction under subsection 40‑285(3) of this Act.
If:
(b) because subsection 701‑1(1) (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies, an asset of the entity becomes an asset of the head company of the group; and
subsection 40‑285(6) of this Act (about reducing the amount included in assessable income for a balancing adjustment event) applies as if the cost of the asset were equal to the tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for the purposes of having its tax cost set by section 701‑10 (cost to head company of assets that entity brings into group) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: The tax cost setting amount applicable in relation to the asset for that purpose is worked out in accordance with Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1) For the purposes of Part 3‑90 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, this section affects whether an interest or right that is held by an entity on or after 1 July 2002 and relates to another entity is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
(2) Apply Division 974 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in determining under Subdivision 960‑G of that Act whether the interest or right is a membership interest of the entity in the other entity.
> Note: Under Subdivision 960‑G of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, a debt interest relating to an entity is not a membership interest in the entity. Division 974 of that Act explains what a debt interest is.
(3) This section has effect whether or not the debt and equity test amendments (as defined in item 118 of Schedule 1 to the New Business Tax System (Debt and Equity) Act 2001) apply to transactions in relation to the interest or right at the relevant time.
Despite the amendments of section 703‑35 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (4) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) If an entity (the joining entity) to which section 40‑75 of this Act applied becomes a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the joining time), this Subdivision applies in relation to:
(ii) became assets of the head company of the group at the joining time because of section 701‑1 (Single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operating in relation to the joining entity; and
(b) notional assets that sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act treat an entity as holding because of expenditure relating to such depreciating assets;
(2) The main object of this Subdivision is to ensure that entities are allowed only an appropriate amount of deductions in connection with such depreciating assets and such expenditure.
(1) The main object of this section is to ensure that a depreciating asset’s tax cost is set, and other matters relevant to working out the deductions of the head company of the consolidated group for the decline in value of the asset are dealt with, so as to:
(a) ensure that the head company does not get excessive deductions on account of expenditure (by any entity) relating to the asset; and
(b) reflect the deductions of an entity for a period ending before the joining time for expenditure relating to the asset; and
(c) ensure that the effective life of the asset for the head company reflects the rate or rates at which the joining entity was able to deduct expenditure relating to the asset (whether or not the expenditure formed part of the cost of the asset).
(2) If the joining entity could not deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the income year that includes the joining time for the decline in value of a depreciating asset, subsection 701‑55(2) of that Act has effect as if the prime cost method for working out the decline in value of the asset applied just before the joining time.
(3) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the adjustable value of a depreciating asset just before and at the joining time were increased by the amount described in subsection (4), if section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset.
> Note: This affects not only the adjustable value of the depreciating asset but also the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset (which section 705‑30 of that Act defines as being equal to the asset’s adjustable value just before the joining time).
(4) The amount of the increase is so much of the adjustable value of the notional asset just before the joining time as reasonably relates to the depreciating asset.
(5) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the cost of a depreciating asset were increased by expenditure incurred that did not form part of the asset’s cost worked out under Division 40 of that Act but would have if it had been incurred just before the joining time under a contract entered into after 30 June 2001.
(6) Division 705 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if deductions relating to expenditure described in subsection (5) were deductions for the decline in value of the depreciating asset.
(a) deductions under former Subdivision 330‑A, 330‑C or 330‑H of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, or a corresponding previous law, for the expenditure; and
(b) deductions under Division 40 of that Act for the decline in value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated an entity as holding because of the expenditure.
(7) If a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount does not exceed the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset, Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the effective life of the asset were such period as is reasonable, having regard to the following:
(b) the remainder of the effective life, worked out just before the joining time, of each notional asset (which section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats an entity as holding wholly or partly because of expenditure relating to the depreciating asset);
> Note 1: The effective life of the depreciating asset was set on 1 July 2001 by subsection 40‑75(4) of this Act, but may have been reset since under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: The effective life of a notional asset is specified by whichever one of sections 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 and 40‑43 of this Act is relevant to the notional asset.
(a) a depreciating asset’s tax cost setting amount would be greater than the joining entity’s terminating value for the asset; and
(9) Section 705‑55 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if subsection (8) of this section were included in section 705‑45 of that Act.
> Note: This affects the order of reductions in the asset’s tax cost setting amount under subsection (8) of this section and section 705‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treats the head company of the consolidated group as holding a notional asset at the joining time because expenditure is taken under section 701‑5 (Entry history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be expenditure of the head company; and
(b) section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑40 or 40‑43 of this Act treated the joining entity as holding a notional asset just before the joining time because of the expenditure;
(2) The object of this section is to ensure, by reducing the adjustable value of a notional asset of the head company, that the head company cannot get both:
(3) The opening adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset for the income year that includes the joining time is so much of the adjustable value of the joining entity’s notional asset just before the joining time as does not reasonably relate to any depreciating asset.
> Note: This offsets the increases in adjustable value of the head company’s depreciating assets under subsection 705‑305(3).
(ii) an asset became that of the leaving entity because section 701‑1 (the single entity rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 ceased to apply when the leaving entity ceased to be a subsidiary member;
(iii) the asset had become that of the head company because that section applied when the joining entity to which Subdivision 707‑A of that Act applies (whether or not the same entity as the leaving entity) became a subsidiary member.
707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
#### 707‑325 Increasing the available fraction for a bundle of losses by increasing the real loss‑maker’s modified market value
(1) This section affects the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses under subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if:
(a) the transferee mentioned in that subsection chooses under subsection (5) of this section to work out the available fraction using a percentage of the modified market value of a company (the value donor) other than the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for the bundle; and
(b) both the real loss‑maker and the value donor became members of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (which is the initial transfer time mentioned in that subsection in connection with the bundle) the group became a consolidated group; and
(ca) neither the real loss‑maker nor the value donor has been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(ii) a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(e) the value donor would have been able to transfer the loss to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 at the initial transfer time had the value donor:
(ea) neither of these sections applies in relation to the value donor as joining entity at the time the group became a consolidated group:
(ii) section 713‑540 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are segregated exempt assets of life insurance company); and
(2) It must have been possible for the real loss‑maker to have transferred the loss to the value donor under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(3) Work out the available fraction for the bundle of losses as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker at the initial transfer time the amount worked out using the formula:

> Note: The amount worked out using the formula will be nil if the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time is nil. Even if the amount is nil, section 707‑327 may treat losses transferred by the value donor to the transferee as if they were included in the bundle of losses transferred by the real loss‑maker to the transferee.
> total of real loss‑maker’s non‑foreign losses in bundle is the total of the amount of each loss that is described in paragraph (1)(d).
(5) The transferee may choose to use a fixed percentage (greater than 0% and not more than 100%) of the value donor’s modified market value to work out the available fraction for the bundle. The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(7) If subsection (3) applies 2 or more times in relation to the same value donor but different real loss‑makers, the transferee cannot choose for those applications percentages of the value donor’s modified market value at the initial transfer time that result in the total of the amounts worked out under those applications exceeding that value.
(8) Work out the available fraction for a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from the value donor at the initial transfer time as if the value donor’s modified market value at the time were reduced by the amount worked out under subsection (3).
(9) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of a bundle of losses only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) included in a bundle of losses:
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
#### 707‑326 Events involving only value donor and real loss‑maker not covered by rule against inflation of modified market value
(1) This section affects the calculation of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for a bundle of losses. This section affects the calculation:
(a) only if section 707‑325 of this Act applies for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle; and
(b) only for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle to affect the utilisation of tax losses, film losses and net capital losses in the bundle (and not any overall foreign losses, as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, in the bundle).
> Note: This section does not affect the calculation of the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for other purposes (such as the real loss‑maker being a value donor for the purposes of another application of section 707‑325 of this Act).
(3) One condition is that the event was an injection of capital directly into the real loss‑maker by the value donor mentioned in section 707‑325 of this Act.
(c) that would have caused subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to operate in working out the real loss‑maker’s modified market value (even if no other events described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act had occurred), apart from this section.
(a) operates for the purposes of working out the value donor’s modified market value because of an event that involved an entity other than the value donor and the real loss‑maker (whether or not the event also involved either the value donor or the real loss‑maker); or
(1) This section has effect for the purposes of working out under Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 how much of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss can be utilised if:
(a) the available fraction for a bundle of other losses is worked out, because of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the modified market value of the real loss‑maker of the other losses an amount worked out under that section by reference to the value donor’s modified market value; and
(c) the loss is not a loss whose utilisation is affected by section 707‑350 (about utilisation of certain losses originally made for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999); and
(d) each company covered by subsection (2) would have been able to transfer the loss under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act at the initial transfer time had the company:
> Note: This section has effect even if the amount added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value under section 707‑325 is nil because the value donor’s modified market value is nil.
(b) each other company (if any) for which it is the case that the available fraction for the bundle is worked out, because of another application of section 707‑325, as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the company.
(3) It must have been possible for the value donor to have transferred an amount (greater than a nil amount) of the loss to each company covered by subsection (2) under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for an income year consisting of the period described in section 707‑328 had the conditions in that section existed.
(4) If the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) chooses, sections 707‑310, 707‑335 (except paragraph 707‑335(2)(a)) and 707‑340 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (and subsections 707‑315(3) and (4) of that Act, so far as they relate to those sections) operate as if, at the initial transfer time:
> Note: This section has the effect that the utilisation of the loss will be affected by the available fraction for the bundle of losses.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (5)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) Subsection (4) does not apply in relation to the loss if it was covered by paragraphs 707‑325(1)(d) and (e) and subsection 707‑325(2) in an application of section 707‑325 separate from the application of that section mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) of this section.
> Note: This means that a loss that provided a basis for section 707‑325 to apply in relation to the working out of the available fraction for a bundle of losses cannot be treated under this section as if it were included in another bundle of losses.
(b) in connection with the requirement that it must have been possible for a company (the notional transferor) to transfer to another company (the notional transferee) for an income year a loss under Subdivision 170‑A or 170‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(b) ends immediately after the initial transfer time mentioned in subsection 707‑320(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: For the purposes of identifying the trial year using the definition in section 707‑120 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the notional transferor mentioned in this section is the same as the joining entity mentioned in that section, and the initial transfer time mentioned in this section is the same as the joining time mentioned in that section.
(3) The first condition is that neither the notional transferor nor the notional transferee became a subsidiary member of a consolidated group before, at or after the initial transfer time mentioned in the relevant subsection.
(4) The second condition is that neither of those Subdivisions had been amended to provide only for transfers involving an Australian branch (as defined in section 160ZZV of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) of a foreign bank.
(5) The third condition is that the notional transferee’s income or gains for the income year were great enough not to prevent the transfer.
(6) The fourth condition is that those Subdivisions operated as if the notional transferor had made the loss for the income year if the notional transferor had actually made it for an income year ending just before the initial transfer time.
(1) Subsection (3) of this section affects the calculation, under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and section 707‑325 of this Act, of the modified market value of the real loss‑maker mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act for a bundle of losses, but only if:
(a) the requirement in subsection (2) of this section is met in relation to each other company that became a member of the group mentioned in subsection 707‑315(1) of that Act in connection with the bundle at the time (the formation time) the group became a consolidated group; and
(b) the provisions described in subsection 707‑327(4) of this Act operate (because of that subsection) in relation to each loss of such a company that is covered by paragraphs 707‑327(1)(b) and (c) of this Act as if the bundle included the loss; and
(d) subsection 707‑325(2) of that Act does not operate, for the purposes of working out the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time, because of an event that involved an entity that did not become a member of the group then; and
(e) the transferee mentioned in subsection 707‑325(1) of this Act chooses that this section apply in relation to the real loss‑maker.
(2) Section 707‑325 of this Act must apply in relation to the other company (as value donor) so that the available fraction for the bundle is to be worked out as if there were added to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value an amount worked out by reference to the other company’s modified market value at the initial transfer time.
(3) Disregard for the purposes of subsection 707‑325(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of that Act and was either:
(a) an injection of capital into an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time by another such entity; or
> Note: Disregarding such an event could have a direct or indirect effect on the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle in one of these ways:
(a) it could directly affect the real loss‑maker’s modified market value calculated under section 707‑325 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, if the real loss‑maker was involved in the event;
(b) it could have an indirect effect by affecting the value donor’s modified market value calculated under that section and used under section 707‑325 of this Act to add an amount to the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for those purposes.
(i) the day on which the transferee lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it utilises (except in accordance with section 707‑350) losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
> Note: For the purposes of subparagraph (4)(a)(i), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(5) This section affects the modified market value of an entity that became a member of the group at the formation time only for the purposes of calculating the real loss‑maker’s modified market value for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle.
(6) This section has effect for working out the available fraction of the bundle only so far as it affects the utilisation of a tax loss, film loss or net capital loss. It does not affect the utilisation of an overall foreign loss (as defined in former section 160AFD of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936) that:
(b) was transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 from an entity other than the real loss‑maker.
(a) utilisation of the overall foreign loss is limited by the available fraction for the bundle worked out apart from this section; and
(b) utilisation of the loss of the other sort is limited by the available fraction for the bundle as affected by this section, if applicable.
(7) This section can operate in relation to only one bundle of losses transferred to the transferee under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
Disregard an event that is described in subsection 707‑325(4) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 and occurred on or before 8 December 2000 in working out under section 707‑325 of that Act the modified market value of an entity at the time it becomes a member of a consolidated group on a day before 8 December 2004.
(1) This section affects the way in which one or more losses of one particular sort in a bundle of losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 before 1 July 2004 can be utilised by the transferee if:
(a) they were actually made (disregarding that Subdivision) by a company (the real loss‑maker) for an income year ending on or before 21 September 1999; and
(b) they were transferred at the time (the initial transfer time) the transferee became the head company of a consolidated group; and
(ii) the conditions in one or more of paragraphs 165‑15(1)(a), (b) and (c) did not exist in relation to the real loss‑maker; and
(da) the real loss‑maker has not been, at any time before the initial transfer time, a transitional foreign loss maker prevented by subsection 701D‑10(1) from being a subsidiary member of a consolidated group; and
(2) The transferee may utilise for an income year the losses only after utilising for the year losses (the non‑transferred losses) of the same sort that the transferee made without a transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (even if the income year for which the transferee made the losses is earlier than an income year for which the transferee made any of the non‑transferred losses).
(3) The amount of the losses that the transferee may utilise for an income year cannot exceed the amount worked out for the year using the table.

(4) Subdivision 707‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operates as if the losses had been made by the transferee without being transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
> Note: This has 2 effects. First, Subdivision 707‑C of that Act does not limit utilisation of the losses. Secondly, it affects the limit that Subdivision sets on utilising other losses in any bundle (because that limit depends on the transferee’s income and gains remaining after utilisation of losses that have not been transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act).
(5) The transferee may choose that this section apply to the utilisation for any income year of all losses (of any sort) in the bundle that meet the conditions in paragraphs (1)(a), (b), (c) and (d). The transferee may do so only by the later of:
(a) the day on which it lodges its income tax return for the first income year for which it could utilise any losses transferred to it under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as described in subsection (1) or otherwise); and
> Note: For the purposes of paragraph (5)(a), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 (Losses of entities whose membership interests are virtual PST assets of life insurance companies) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies. See section 707‑355 of this Act.
(6) The choice has effect for that income year and all later income years (and cannot be revoked after 31 December 2005).
(7) This section does not limit the transfer under Subdivision 707‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of any of the losses from the transferee to another company.
In working out when a choice may be made under subsection 707‑325(5), 707‑327(5), 707‑328A(4) or 707‑350(5), ignore losses to which section 713‑535 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies.
> Note: That section deals with losses transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act from certain wholly‑owned subsidiaries of life insurance companies that are members of a consolidated group.
Section 707‑405 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to this Division, and Division 170 of that Act as it has effect for the purposes of this Division, in the same way as that section has effect in relation to Division 707 of that Act.
(1) This section reduces the adjustable value of a notional asset that section 40‑35, 40‑37, 40‑38, 40‑40 or 40‑43 treats the head company of a consolidated group as holding, if:
(b) that section treats the leaving entity as holding a notional asset because of section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note: Section 701‑40 (Exit history rule) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 treats as expenditure of the leaving entity certain expenditure incurred before the leaving time in relation to an asset or business that was an asset or business of the leaving entity at the leaving time.
(2) The adjustable value of the head company’s notional asset is reduced at the leaving time by the adjustable value of the leaving entity’s notional asset at that time.
The object of this Subdivision is to give an opportunity to a group of entities that includes a life insurance company to rearrange the assets of the group for the purposes of one or more of them becoming members of a consolidated group in a way that does not attract any immediate taxation consequences.
(1) This Subdivision provides for a deferral of the taxation consequences that would occur because of an event (the deferral event) happening involving an entity (the originating entity) and another entity (the recipient entity) if:
(a) the event occurs in connection with a life insurance company (the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group; and
(2) If the originating entity is a company, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(3) If the originating entity is a trust, the deferral event referred to in subsection (1) is a CGT event referred to in subsection (4) happening to a CGT asset (also the original asset) where, apart from this Subdivision, the happening of the event would have resulted in:
(b) CGT event C2, but only if the CGT asset that ends is a unit in a unit trust that is replaced by an equivalent membership interest (the replacement interest) in a company or in another trust.
(a) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its virtual PST or from its virtual PST where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑200 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer; or
(b) a life insurance company transfers an asset (also the original asset) to its segregated exempt assets where, apart from this Subdivision, section 320‑255 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 would apply to the transfer;
where the transfer (also the deferral event) is made in connection with the life insurance company (also the member life insurance company) becoming a member of a consolidated group.
(1) This Subdivision applies only if the originating entity (for a section 713‑505 case) or the life insurance company (for a section 713‑510 case) chooses that it apply.
(a) by the day the originating entity or the life insurance company, or the head company of the consolidated group of which it is a member, lodges its income tax return for the income year in which the deferral event happened; or
(i) a life insurance company that has virtual PST assets or segregated exempt assets and that is a member of a consolidatable group; or
(ii) an entity that is unable to be a member of the same consolidatable group as a life insurance company because of section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(iii) an entity that is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary of a life insurance company and is a member of the same consolidated group as the life insurance company; and
(b) the originating entity and the recipient entity must be members of the same consolidatable group or consolidated group or, if they are not, they would have been apart from section 713‑510 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(a) the total transfer values of the virtual PST assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer; and
(b) the total transfer values of the segregated exempt assets of the member life insurance company just before a transfer of assets to which this Subdivision applies must be the same as the total transfer values of those assets just after the transfer.
(b) if the head company of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member has a substituted accounting period—the end of the head company’s income year in which 30 June 2004 occurs.
This Act, and the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, apply to the transfer of an asset to which this Subdivision applies as if the asset had been transferred just before the member life insurance company became a member of the consolidated group.
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the originating entity’s assessable income (the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (the deferred gain) that the originating entity would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded; and
(i) any amount (other than a capital gain) that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(ii) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(a) any amount that would have been included in the member life insurance company’s assessable income (also the deferred amount) under paragraph 320‑15(e) or (g) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as a result of the deferral event is not so included; and
(b) any capital gain (also the deferred gain) that the member life insurance company would have made as a result of the deferral event is disregarded.
(1) This section operates if, after the deferral event happens, another event (the new event) happens where the new event is:
(b) the recipient entity ceasing to be a member of the consolidated group of which the member life insurance company is a member; or
(i) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s virtual PST under section 320‑180, 320‑185 or 320‑195 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; or
(ii) the original asset being transferred to or from the company’s segregated exempt assets under section 320‑235, 320‑240 or 320‑250 of that Act; or
(a) the originating entity must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the originating entity is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
> Note: If the originating entity is a subsidiary member of a consolidated group, the head company of the group will have the amount included in its assessable income or will make the capital gain.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(4) For a section 713‑505 case where the originating entity is a life insurance company or a trust and the deferred amount or the deferred gain relates to an asset that was a virtual PST asset at the time when the deferral event happened, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(a) the member life insurance company must include the deferred amount in its assessable income for the income year in which the new event happens; or
(b) the member life insurance company is taken, just before the new event happened, to have made a capital gain equal to the deferred gain.
(6) In addition, if the deferral event involved the transfer of assets from the member life insurance company’s virtual PST, an amount equal to the deferred amount or deferred gain is taken to be an amount of assessable income to which subsection 320‑205(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies for the relevant entity.
(1) For a section 713‑505 case, the recipient entity must, if it is not a member of the same consolidated group as the originating entity when the new event happens, notify the originating entity in the approved form of the happening of the new event within 60 days after the new event happens.
The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies as if the capital gain referred to in paragraph 713‑535(2)(b), (3)(b) or (5)(b) were a discount capital gain if:
(a) an entity (the leaving entity) ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at a time (the leaving time); and
(b) but for the cessation of membership and section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the group would be subject to a balancing adjustment under item 104 of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Taxation of Financial Arrangements) Act 2009 for an income year ending after the leaving time.
(2) Despite section 701‑40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the exit history rule), the head company of the consolidated group continues to be subject to the balancing adjustment for income years ending after the leaving time.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity becomes a member of a consolidated group, if, before the commencement of the provision, the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the Commissioner is given notice under Division 703 that the entity has become a member of the group has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
(1) This section extends the time given by each of the following provisions of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for making a choice because an entity ceases to be a subsidiary member of a consolidated group at the leaving time, if the leaving time is before the commencement of the provision:
(2) A reference in each of those provisions to the end of 90 days after the leaving time has effect as if it were a reference to the end of 90 days after the commencement of the provision.
Sections 716‑340 and 716‑345 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 1 of an item of the table in the same way as they operate in relation to a thing mentioned in column 2 of the item.

```
(1) This Part (other than Division 701B, Division 703 and this Division) has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (1), a reference in this Part (other than in Division 703 and this Division) to a provision in:
Section 703‑30 of this Act has effect in relation to a MEC group in the same way in which it has effect in relation to a consolidated group.
(2) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of those sections, the test entity cannot be a subsidiary member of the group if the group came into existence on or after 1 July 2004.
(2) For the purposes of that subsection, in determining whether an entity was at a particular time (the ownership time) a wholly‑owned subsidiary of the entity that became the head company of the group (the head entity), make the assumption in subsection (3).
(3) The assumption is that the head entity owned at the ownership time each membership interest covered by subsection (4).
(4) A membership interest is covered by this subsection if it was beneficially owned at the ownership time by any entity that became an eligible tier‑1 company of the group at the formation time.
Despite the amendment of section 719‑30 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 made by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Act 2009, subsection (2) of that section continues to apply, from the commencement of that Schedule, to each share and membership interest that it applied to just before that commencement.
(1) Section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect in relation to the provisions of this Act mentioned in subsection (2) in the same way as that section has effect in relation to the provisions mentioned in subsection 719‑160(3) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) However, that effect of section 719‑160 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is subject to modifications set out in this Division.
(2) Paragraphs 701‑1(2)(b) and (3)(b) of this Act have effect as if a reference in those paragraphs to the future head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group as an eligible tier‑1 company at the time the MEC group came into existence.
(a) the entity and one or more other entities were members of a potential MEC group as eligible tier‑1 companies, throughout the period:
(ii) the entity would be covered by subparagraph (i), if it were assumed that all of the membership interests that were beneficially owned by any of those other entities at that time were owned by a single one of those other entities; and
(c) the entity continued to satisfy either of the conditions mentioned in paragraph (b) at all times throughout the period:
(c) when the transitional group came into existence, the test entity was a subsidiary member of the group, other than as:
(2) That paragraph applies as if the reference in that paragraph to the entity that became the head company were a reference to any entity that became a member of the group, and that was an eligible tier‑1 company, at the time the transitional group came into existence.
To avoid doubt, sections 707‑325 and 707‑327 do not apply for the purposes of working out the available fraction for the bundle of losses that are taken under subsection 719‑305(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 to be transferred under Subdivision 707‑A of that Act.
Subsection 719‑325(7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply if the revocation of the choice mentioned in that subsection takes place before 1 January 2006.
(1) A reference in an agreement to item 25 of the table in subsection 721‑10(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is taken, from the commencement of this section, to be a reference to item 3 of that table, if:
(1) Division 723 applies to a realisation event happening on or after 1 July 2002 to a CGT asset that, at the time of the event:
Division 725 applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002. It also applies to a scheme entered into on or after 27 June 2002, but only if:
### Division 727—Indirect value shifting affecting interests in companies and trusts, and arising from non‑arm’s length dealings
727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(1) Division 727, as inserted by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002 and amended by the New Business Tax System (Consolidation and Other Measures) Act 2003, applies to a scheme entered into on or after 1 July 2002.
(b) a presumed indirect value shift that happens under the scheme and affects a realisation event that happens on or after 1 July 2002.
(a) the economic benefits taken into account in determining that the scheme has resulted in that indirect value shift or presumed indirect value shift include economic benefits provided by:
> Note: In that case, the consequences of the trigger event are worked out under Division 138 or 139 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997: see items 13 and 14 of Schedule 15 to the New Business Tax System (Consolidation, Value Shifting, Demergers and Other Measures) Act 2002.
(1) An indirect value shift does not have consequences under Division 727 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 if, to the extent of at least 95% of their total market value, the greater benefits consist entirely of:
(a) a right to have services that are covered by section 727‑240 of that Act provided directly by the losing entity to the gaining entity; or
(d) if the losing entity’s 2002‑2003 income year ends before 30 June 2003—the start of the losing entity’s 2004‑2005 income year.
(2) For the purposes of section 727‑850 (about a presumed indirect value shift affecting a realisation event) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, subsection (1) of this section applies to the presumed indirect value shift:
#### 727‑470 Affected interests do not include equity or loan interests owned by entity that is eligible to be an STS taxpayer
(2) Paragraph 727‑470(2)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (as in force immediately before the commencement of this section) continues to have effect in relation to the indirect value shift as if the repeals and amendments made by Schedule 1, Parts 1 and 2 of Schedule 3 and Schedule 8 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Small Business) Act 2007 had not been made.
## 701C‑30 Transitional foreign‑held subsid 701C‑30 Transitional foreign‑held subsidiary to be treated as part of head company
(a) section 701‑10 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about setting the tax cost of assets that an entity brings into the group);
apply, for the purposes of setting the tax cost of an asset of the transitional foreign‑held joining entity at the formation time, as if each subsidiary member of the group that is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary at the formation time were a part of the head company of the group, rather than a separate entity.
> Note 1: This section means that references in those provisions to matters internal to the group operate as if transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries in the group were parts of the head company of the group. For example:
(a) provisions operating if the head company holds (whether directly or indirectly) membership interests in another entity operate even if a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary actually holds those interests; and
(b) provisions operating if the head company owns or controls another entity operate even if one or more transitional foreign‑held subsidiaries actually own or control that other entity; and
(c) provisions operating if an entity is interposed between the head company and another entity operate even if the first entity is actually interposed between a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary and the other entity.
> Note 2: If the transitional foreign‑held joining entity is a transitional foreign‑held subsidiary, this section means the assets of the entity do not have their tax cost reset at the formation time. This is because Subdivision 705‑A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, in its application in accordance with Subdivision 705‑B of that Act, resets the tax cost of assets of subsidiary members of a group, but not assets of the head company.
## Other modifications Other modifications
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for plant under Division 42 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the former Act) as in force just before it was amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001, or you could have deducted amounts under that Division for the plant if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day; and
(2) Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 as amended by the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances) Act 2001 and the New Business Tax System (Capital Allowances—Transitional and Consequential) Act 2001 (the new Act) applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) the amount that was your undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the plant’s opening adjustable value; and
(b) you use the same cost, effective life and method that you were using under Division 42 of the former Act, or that you would have used if you had used the plant for the purpose of producing assessable income at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) if you excluded an amount from your assessable income under section 42‑290 of the former Act for a balancing adjustment event that occurred on or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999—the cost of the plant, and its opening adjustable value, are reduced by that amount; and
(d) if subparagraph (1)(b)(ii) applies to you—you are treated as the holder of the plant while you are its holder or while the circumstances under which you would have been the owner or quasi‑owner of the plant under the former Act continue.
(3) If you were using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act just before 1 July 2001, or would have been using such a rate if you had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the plant on this basis:
(a) for the diminishing value method—replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(i) replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you were using; and
(ii) increase the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note 1: Recalculating effective life will have no practical effect for an entity to whom subsection (3) applies because the component in the relevant formula that relies on effective life has been replaced.
> Note 2: Small business entities can choose to work out the decline in value of their depreciating assets under Division 328.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire an item of plant before 1 July 2001 and you acquired it after 30 June 2001; or
(3) If you entered into the contract, or started to construct the plant, at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) or 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate you would have been using if you had acquired it, or completed its construction, before 1 July 2001 and had used it, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you entered into a contract to acquire the plant, you otherwise acquired it or you started to construct it before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and
(2) For a case where the plant is split into 2 or more depreciating assets, the new Act applies as if you had acquired the assets into which it is split before the time mentioned in paragraph (1)(a) while you continue to hold those assets.
(3) For a case where the plant is merged into another depreciating asset, section 40‑125 of the new Act does not apply to the asset, or to your interest in the asset, into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) you would have been using such a rate if you had used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for the purpose of producing assessable income before that day.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for an IRU under Division 44 of the former Act or you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under that Division if you had used it for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(a) you use the cost, effective life and method you were using under Division 44 of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the IRU for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001; and
(b) the amount that was your undeducted cost of the IRU at the end of 30 June 2001 becomes the IRU’s opening adjustable value.
(1) Despite its repeal by this Act, Division 46 of the former Act continues to apply to expenditure on software that you incurred and that was in a software pool under that Division at the end of 30 June 2001.
(2) For a unit of software for which you were deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or for which you could have deducted amounts under that Subdivision if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001, Division 40 of the new Act applies to the unit on this basis:
(d) you must use the same effective life you were using under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act or that you would have used if you had used the software for the purpose of producing assessable income before 1 July 2001.
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 380 of the former Act for expenditure incurred in obtaining a spectrum licence on or before 30 June 2001 or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the licence for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(b) its opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the licence at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(c) its effective life is 15 years less any period that has elapsed from the day the licence was issued until 1 July 2001; and
(1) This section applies to you if you have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001.
> Note: Subsection (6) also applies to a case where you did not have unrecouped expenditure at 30 June 2001: see subsection (8).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the amount of unrecouped expenditure reduced by any deductions allowable under section 330‑80 of the former Act for your income year ending on 30 June 2001; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The remaining effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining is the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 10 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible;
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure in respect of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations the lesser of these:
(i) the number equal to the difference between 20 and the number of income years (which may be zero) before the present income year for which an amount in respect of expenditure was deductible; and
(ii) the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(i) any of the unrecouped expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(ii) in the cessation year, the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset or the other property and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or
(b) if the other property is sold with additional property without a specific price being allocated to it—the part of the total sale price, less the reasonably attributable expenses of the sale, that is reasonably attributable to selling the other property; or
(c) if the other property is lost or destroyed—the amount or value received or receivable under an insurance policy or otherwise for the loss or destruction; or
However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(7) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:
(a) if the real asset is split into 2 or more depreciating assets and you stop holding, or stop using for a taxable purpose, one or more but not all of the assets into which it is split—subsection (5) does not apply to that asset or assets into which it is split that you continue to hold and continue to use for a taxable purpose; or
(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(a) you did not have an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001, but you had an amount of unrecouped expenditure under that Division before 30 June 2001; and
(b) the expenditure would have been allowable capital expenditure, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Division 330 of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which you incur the expenditure—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year; or
(c) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible quarrying operations—the lesser of 20 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the quarry, or proposed quarry, on the quarrying property, or, if there is more than one such quarry, of the quarry that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year.
(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(6) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(i) you incurred the expenditure before that day but the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred on a day (the start day) after 30 June 2001; or
(ii) the grant of the mining authority concerned occurred before 30 June 2001 but you incurred the expenditure on a day (also the start day) after 30 June 2001.

(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for the income year in which the start day occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(3) The effective life of the notional asset at the start of an income year (present income year) for which you are working out its decline in value is:
(a) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine, or proposed mine, on the mining property, or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life, as at the end of the present income year; or
(b) for an amount of expenditure incurred in carrying on eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the lesser of 10 and the number equal to the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field as at the end of the present income year.
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the real asset and has not been taken into account in working out the amount of a balancing adjustment in relation to the real asset.
(6) If section 40‑115 of the new Act applies, or section 40‑125 of the new Act would, apart from this subsection, apply, to the real asset referred to in subsection (5) of this section, then:

(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the total amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act less the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for that expenditure under the former Act; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(d) it has an effective life at the start of 1 July 2001 equal to the years remaining for the expenditure under section 330‑395 of the former Act; and

(b) if the real asset is merged into another depreciating asset—section 40‑125 does not apply to the asset into which it is merged while you continue to hold it.
(b) the expenditure would have been transport capital expenditure in respect of a transport facility, and you could have deducted an amount for it, under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act if you had incurred it before 1 July 2001 and you had started to use the facility for a qualifying purpose before 1 July 2001; and
(2) Division 40 of the new Act applies to the expenditure as if it were a depreciating asset (the notional asset) you hold on this basis:

(a) any of the expenditure referred to in subsection (1) relates to property that is not a depreciating asset (the other property);
(b) in an income year (the cessation year), the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose;
there is an additional decline in value of the notional asset for the cessation year equal to so much of the notional asset’s adjustable value as relates to the other property.
(5) If the other property is disposed of, lost or destroyed, or you stop using it for a taxable purpose, you must include in your assessable income:
(a) if the other property is sold for a price specific to that property—that price, less the expenses of the sale (to the extent the expenses are reasonably attributable to selling that particular property); or

However, the amount included is reduced to the extent (if any) that it is also included under subsection 40‑830(6) of the new Act.
(1) Despite subsections 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) and 40‑40(4), there is no additional decline in the value of the notional asset referred to in those subsections if:
(a) apart from this section, subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) would apply because the real asset referred to in that subsection is disposed of; and
(a) at the end of 30 June 2001, you hold an item of intellectual property referred to in the table in section 373‑35 of the former Act; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for expenditure on the asset under Division 373 of the former Act or you could have deducted an amount under that Division for that expenditure if you had used the asset for the purpose of producing assessable income on or before that day.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to its unrecouped expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001; and
(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU to the extent to which expenditure on the IRU was incurred at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999 (the IRU time).
(2) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an IRU over an international telecommunications submarine cable system if the system had been used for telecommunications purposes at or before the IRU time.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑G of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a forestry road or timber mill building or could have deducted an amount under that Subdivision if you had used the road or building for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act; and
(b) in applying the formula in section 40‑75 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—you use the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act; and
(e) you can recalculate its effective life if you conclude that your estimate is no longer accurate (except that the effective life cannot exceed 25 years); and
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on or before 30 June 2001 on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project under Subdivision 400‑A of the former Act.
(a) it has an opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 equal to the qualifying amount less any amounts you have deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936; and
(c) it has an effective life equal to the number of years for which you could deduct for the qualifying amount worked out under subsection 400‑15(3) of the former Act; and
(1) Units of plant that you had allocated to a pool under Subdivision 42‑L of the former Act and that were allocated to the pool by 30 June 2001 are treated as a single depreciating asset for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) its cost and opening adjustable value at 1 July 2001 is the closing balance of the pool for your income year in which 30 June 2001 occurred; and
(c) in applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs—it has a base value equal to that opening adjustable value; and
(d) you replace the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes an asset’s effective life with the pool percentage you were using for the pool; and
(e) if an item of plant is removed from the pool because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item or because of subsection (3) of this section, section 40‑115 of the new Act applies so that you are treated as having split the single depreciating asset into the removed asset and the remaining assets in the pool; and
(f) if an amount is included in the second element of the cost of a depreciating asset in the pool, Division 40 of the new Act applies as if that amount had been included in the second element of the cost of the single asset.
(3) An item of plant in the pool is automatically removed from the pool if you stop using it wholly for taxable purposes (except because a balancing adjustment event occurs for the item).
> Note 1: You work out the decline in value of an item removed under this subsection under Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act, using the cost for it worked out under section 40‑205 of the new Act.
(b) because of a provision of this Subdivision, uses Division 40 of the new Act to work out the decline in value of an asset, or of something that is treated as an asset.
(2) The entity works out its deductions for its income year that includes 1 July 2001 (the calculation year) in this way:
(a) the entity works out its deductions for that asset under the former Act as from the start of its calculation year up to the end of 30 June 2001 as if that period were an income year; and
(b) the entity works out the decline in value of the asset under Division 40 of the new Act from 1 July 2001 until the end of its calculation year as if that period were an income year in accordance with the following provisions of this section.
(a) for a unit of plant (including IRUs and expenditure on software that is not pooled)—its undeducted cost at the end of 30 June 2001; or
(b) for expenditure on eligible mining or quarrying operations, an item of intellectual property or a spectrum licence—the amount of unrecouped expenditure for the expenditure, item or licence under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 reduced, in the case of eligible mining or quarrying operations, by an amount you have deducted or can deduct for the calculation year under the former Act and not yet taken into account in calculating unrecouped expenditure; or
(c) for transport capital expenditure—the entity’s amount of transport capital expenditure under the former Act at the end of 30 June 2001 less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to that time; or
(d) for expenditure on a forestry road, a timber mill building, a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(e) for expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—the amount of that expenditure less any amounts the entity has deducted or can deduct for it under the former Act up to 30 June 2001; or
(f) for assets that were pooled under Subdivision 42‑M or 42‑L of the former Act—the closing balance of the pool at the end of 30 June 2001.
(4) The asset’s base value for applying the formula in section 40‑70 of the new Act for the diminishing value method is that opening adjustable value.
(5) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method without the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an item of plant for which you were using the prime cost method—using the rules in section 40‑10 of this Act; and
(c) for a unit of software for which the entity was deducting amounts under Subdivision 46‑B of the former Act—using the rules in subsection 40‑25(2) of this Act; and
(f) for an amount of expenditure on evaluating the impact on the environment of a project—using the rules in section 40‑55 of this Act.
(6) The decline in value for the assets referred to in this subsection is worked out using the prime cost method using the adjustments in subsection 40‑75(3) of the new Act, and the opening adjustable value specified in subsection (3) of this section, in this way:
(a) for an amount of unrecouped expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑35 of this Act; and
(b) for an amount of transport capital expenditure under Division 330 of the former Act—using the rules in section 40‑40 of this Act; and
(7) The entity must work out the decline in value of each of the assets for later income years under Division 40 of the new Act.
(a) allowable capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑C of the former Act; or
(b) transport capital expenditure for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 330‑H of the former Act; or
(c) a water facility for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act; or
(d) expenditure on connecting power to land or upgrading the connection for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act; or
(e) expenditure on a telephone line on or extending to land for which the entity had deducted or can deduct an amount under Subdivision 387‑E of the former Act;
reduce its deductions for each of the periods referred to in paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) by multiplying the deduction for that period by the number of days in that period and dividing the result by 365.
(9) The entity cannot deduct anything for an asset referred to in this section under the former Act for any part of its calculation year after 30 June 2001.
(10) You are entitled to a further deduction for a depreciating asset for which you are using the diminishing value method if the sum of the deductions worked out under paragraphs (2)(a) and (b) (the sum amount) is less than the deduction to which you would have been entitled for the asset if the former Act had continued to apply to the whole of the calculation year (the former Act amount).
(11) You increase the amount worked out under paragraph (2)(b) by the difference between the former Act amount and the sum amount.
(1) Subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 apply with the changes set out in this section if either or both of the following events have happened:
(b) you could have deducted one or more amounts under that former section for the asset if you had not chosen tax offsets under former section 73I of that Act.
(a) paragraph 40‑65(6)(a) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 included both events set out in subsection (1) of this section; and
(b) subsections 40‑65(6) and (7) of that Act deal with all 4 kinds of events in a corresponding way to the way that they deal with 2 kinds of events.
(1) A reference in the new Act to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a depreciating asset under Division 40 of the new Act includes a reference to an amount that you have deducted or can deduct for a capital allowance relating to the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(2) An amount you have deducted or can deduct for a water facility under Subdivision 387‑B of the former Act or former section 75B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 is taken to have been deducted under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(3) A reference in the new Act to a reduction in your deduction for a depreciating asset includes a reference to amounts by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) you are taken to start holding a depreciating asset on or after 10 May 2006 because of section 40‑115 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or 40‑125 (about merging depreciating assets) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(b) it is reasonable to conclude that you split the asset or merged the assets for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset or assets (after the splitting or merging) would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act;
(2) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset before 10 May 2006 if:
(c) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.
(3) The Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to you as if you had started to hold a depreciating asset (the substituted asset) before 10 May 2006 if:
(b) the substituted asset is identical to or has a purpose similar to another depreciating asset that another entity acquired from you on or after that day under that arrangement; and
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you entered into the arrangement for the main purpose of ensuring that the decline in value of the substituted asset would be worked out under section 40‑72 of that Act.

(2) If you incur expenditure on the asset after 30 June 2001 that forms part of the cost of the asset, you can deduct the expenditure for the income year in which you incur it if it would have been expenditure on exploration or prospecting within the meaning of Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) Otherwise, Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001, and an effective life on that day or at its start time, whichever is the later, worked out under subsection (4) of this section.
(a) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations other than in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the mine or proposed mine to which the expenditure relates or, if there is more than one such mine, of the mine that has the longest estimated life; or
(b) if the expenditure on the asset was incurred in relation to eligible mining operations in the course of petroleum mining—the shorter of:
(ii) the number of whole years in the estimated life of the petroleum field or proposed petroleum field to which the expenditure relates; or

(1) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.
> Note: If you incur expenditure relating to assets of that kind, you cannot deduct it under Division 40\. However, the expenditure may be taken into account in calculating a capital gain or capital loss under Part 3‑1 or 3‑3 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(1A) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to a renewal or extension of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001.

(i) the other company is a member of the same wholly‑owned group as the original holder and was a member of that group just before that day; and
(ii) the right was held in the period between that day and the time of the transfer by a company or companies that were members of that group on that day and at the time of the transfer.
(1D) Division 40 of the new Act does not apply to an interest in a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold on or after 1 July 2001 if:

(a) you dispose of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before 1 July 2001 to an associate of yours (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group); or
(b) you enter into an arrangement in relation to such a right under which you maintain, in essence, the economic ownership of the right but not its legal ownership;
the cost of the right to the purchaser is limited, for the purposes of Division 40 of the new Act, to a maximum of the costs that would have been deductible for the right under Division 330 of the former Act.
(3) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under section 15‑40 or subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of mining, quarrying or prospecting information you started to hold before 1 July 2001 is reduced (but not below zero) by so much of the capital cost of acquiring the information that you incurred before that day and that:
(a) after 1 July 2001, you stop holding a mining, quarrying or prospecting right that you started to hold before that day; and
(b) you have deducted or can deduct an amount for it under Subdivision 330‑C in relation to Subdivision 330‑D or 330‑E of the former Act.

(7) An amount that would be included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the new Act in respect of a mining, quarrying or prospecting right is reduced by an amount worked out under subsection (8) if:
(a) you acquired the right from an associate (except a company that is a member of the same wholly‑owned group) on or after 1 July 2001; and
(8) The amount is reduced (but not below zero) by the difference between the capital cost that you incurred after that day and the amount to which the cost of the right is limited under subsection (2) of this section.
(c) if you had incurred the expenditure before 1 July 2001, and had satisfied any relevant requirement for deductibility, you would have been able to deduct an amount for it under Division 44, 373 or 380, or Subdivision 46‑B or 387‑G, of the former Act.
(2) Subdivision 40‑B of the new Act applies to the asset on the basis that it has a cost, and an adjustable value, of zero at the start of 1 July 2001.
A determination by the Commissioner of the effective life of an asset that was made under section 42‑110 of the former Act and that was in force at the end of 30 June 2001 has effect as if it had been made under section 40‑100 of the new Act.
if the instrument was in force immediately before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(2) The instrument has effect, after that commencement, as if it had been made under that section as amended by the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011.
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset for an income year is the amount worked out under section 40‑130 if:
(a) the income year is the year in which you start to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose; and
(b) subsection (2) (about businesses with turnover less than $500 million) applies to you for the year and for the income year in which you started to hold the asset (if that was an earlier year); and
> Note 1: An effect of paragraph (1)(a) is that this Subdivision only applies to one income year per asset. See also subsection 40‑135(1).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $500 million; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this subsection.
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under section 40‑82 or Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(3) However, this section does not apply to a depreciating asset for an income year if you work out the decline in value of the asset for the income year under any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of paragraph 40‑120(1)(c) and section 328‑182, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, in the period beginning on 12 March 2020 and ending on 30 June 2021, you:
> Note: Section 328‑182 provides similar accelerated depreciation for small business entities that choose to use Subdivision 328‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑12 March 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑12 March 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of becoming covered by this section for the post‑12 March 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you were already covered by this section for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(8) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(9) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(10) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(1) For the purposes of section 40‑120, the decline in value for the income year in which paragraph 40‑120(1)(a) is satisfied (the current year) is:
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 12 March 2020 to 30 June 2020 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021.
(a) 50% of the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the second element of the asset’s cost after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming its cost were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(3) However, the amount worked out under subsection (2) for an income year cannot be more than the amount that is the asset’s cost for the year.
(a) 50% of the sum of the asset’s opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year, disregarding any amount included in that second element after 30 June 2021;
(b) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the current year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assuming:
(ii) for the prime cost method—the component “Asset’s \*cost” in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of that Act (as adjusted under that section) were reduced by the amount worked out under paragraph (a).
> Note: Paragraph (a) effectively only requires you to disregard an amount included in the second element of cost if you have a substituted accounting period that ends after 30 June 2021.
(b) for the prime cost method—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the income year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for that year.
(1) The decline in value of a depreciating asset is not worked out under this Subdivision for an income year if this Subdivision already applied in working out the decline in value of the asset for an income year.
(2) For an income year later than the year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(3) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(4) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year, and subsequent income years, is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the first income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
If this Subdivision applies to work out the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year, no other provision of this Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies to work out that decline in value.
(1) For the purposes of this Subdivision, you are covered by this section for a depreciating asset if, on or before 30 June 2023:
(2) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 does not apply to the asset because of section 40‑45 of that Act.
(3) Despite subsection (1), you are not covered by this section for the asset if, at the time you first use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it is not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
Exception—assets for which the decline in value is worked out under Subdivision 40‑E or 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997
(a) the asset is allocated to a low‑value pool, or expenditure on the asset is allocated to a software development pool (see Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997); or
(b) you or another taxpayer has deducted or can deduct amounts for the asset under Subdivision 40‑F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about primary production depreciating assets).
(i) each reference in Subdivision 328‑C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about what is a small business entity) to $10 million were instead a reference to $5 billion; and
(ii) the reference in paragraph 328‑110(5)(b) of that Act to a small business entity were instead a reference to an entity covered by this section.
(ii) if the 2019‑20 income year ends on or before 6 October 2020—the sum of your ordinary income (if any) and statutory income (if any) for the 2019‑20 income year; and
(c) the sum of the amounts worked out under subsection (3) for the 2016‑17, 2017‑18 and 2018‑19 income years exceeds $100 million.
(b) next, work out the cost of each of those assets (including any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in the income year);
(4) For the purposes of subsection (3), disregard an asset if, at the time you first used the asset, or had it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose:
(a) it was not reasonable to conclude that you would use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(5) For the purposes of paragraph (3)(b), to work out the cost of a depreciating asset that is capital works (see section 43‑20 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997):
(a) disregard section 40‑45 of that Act and work out the cost of the capital works using Subdivision 40‑C of that Act; and
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under subsection (3) if:
(a) where section 40‑155 covers you for the current year (regardless whether section 40‑157 also covers you for the current year)—an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑165 (about exclusions for businesses with turnover of $50 million or more); or
(ii) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s start time occurs in the current year—the asset’s cost as at the end of the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023; or
(b) if the asset’s start time occurred in an earlier year—the sum of its opening adjustable value for the current year and any amount included in the second element of its cost for the current year, disregarding any amount included in the asset’s cost after 30 June 2023.
> Note 1: The asset’s start time is when you first use it, or have it installed ready for use, for any purpose (including a non‑taxable purpose): see subsection 40‑60(2) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
> Note 2: A case covered by paragraph (b) is where you start to hold the asset in the period 6 October 2020 to 30 June 2021 and use it for only non‑taxable purposes in that period, then first use it for a taxable purpose in the period 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022.
(a) where paragraph 40‑160(2)(a) applies—section 40‑155 would not cover you for the income year if the reference in that section to $5 billion were instead a reference to $50 million; and
(i) entering into a contract under which you hold the post‑6 October 2020 asset on the conduct day, or will hold that asset on an even later day; or
(c) the post‑6 October 2020 asset is the asset mentioned in paragraph (a), or an identical or substantially similar asset; and
(d) you engage in that conduct for the purpose, or for purposes that include the purpose, of satisfying paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) for the post‑6 October 2020 asset.
(4) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3), treat yourself as having started to construct an asset at a time if you first incur expenditure in respect of the construction of the asset at that time.
(5) To avoid doubt, for the purposes of this section, you do not enter into a contract under which you hold an asset merely because you acquire an option to enter into such a contract.
(6) For the purposes of subsections (2), (3), (4) and (5), if a partner in a partnership does any of the following things, treat the partnership (instead of the partner) as having done the thing:
(b) you started holding the asset under section 40‑115 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about splitting a depreciating asset) or section 40‑125 of that Act (about merging depreciating assets); or
(c) you already satisfied paragraph 40‑160(1)(a) of this Act for the asset as a member of a consolidated group or a MEC group of which you are no longer a member.
(9) However, paragraph (7)(a) does not apply in relation to an intangible asset unless the asset was used for the purpose of producing ordinary income before you first used it, or had it installed ready for use, for any purpose. In applying this subsection, disregard ordinary income that arises as a result of the disposal of the asset to you.
(1) For the purposes of subsections 40‑160(2) and 40‑170(1A), an exclusion applies to you and an asset for an income year if any of the exclusions in this section applies in relation to the asset.
(4) This exclusion applies in relation to the asset if the asset is available for use, at any time in the income year, by any of the following:
(1) For the purposes of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, the decline in value of a depreciating asset you hold for an income year (the current year) is the amount worked out under this section if:
(ii) you started to use the asset, or have it installed ready for use, for a taxable purpose in an earlier income year; and
(b) an exclusion applies to you and the asset for the current year under section 40‑167 (about exclusions for corporate tax entities with income under $5 billion).
(a) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997—the amount worked out under subsection (3); or
(b) if the asset’s decline in value for the year would, apart from section 40‑145, be worked out under Subdivision 40‑BA of this Act—the amount worked out under subsection (4); or
Assets affected by section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (about assets costing less than $150,000, medium sized businesses)
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under section 40‑82 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, assuming the reference in subparagraph 40‑82(3A)(b)(ii) of that Act to 31 December 2020 were instead a reference to the 2020 budget time; and
(a) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(a) or (4)(a) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(a) and (4)(a) to 30 June 2021 were instead references to the 2020 budget time; and
(c) the amount that would be worked out under paragraph 40‑130(2)(b) or (4)(b) (whichever is applicable) for the year, assuming the references in paragraphs 40‑130(2)(b) and (4)(b) to “the amount worked out under paragraph (a)” were instead references to “the amounts worked out under paragraphs 40‑170(4)(a) and (b)”.
(a) the amount that would be the asset’s decline in value for the year under Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, disregarding any amounts included in the eligible second element worked out under section 40‑175 of this Act for the asset for the year; and
The amount worked out under this section (the eligible second element) for a depreciating asset for an income year is the sum of any amounts included in the second element of the asset’s cost at a time that is in both of the following periods:
(1) For an income year later than a year in which the decline in value is worked out under this Subdivision, the decline in value is worked out under the other provisions of Division 40 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(2) If you use the prime cost method for the asset, you must adjust the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 for the later year in the manner set out in subsection 40‑75(3) of that Act. The later year is the change year referred to in that subsection.
(3) Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 has effect as if the decline in value worked out under this Subdivision had been worked out under Subdivision 40‑B of that Act.
(1) This section applies if the decline in value for a depreciating asset for an income year is worked out under this Subdivision, and at a time (the balancing adjustment time) in a later income year:
(i) it becomes not reasonable to conclude that you will use the asset principally in Australia for the principal purpose of carrying on a business; or
(b) none of the requirements in paragraphs 40‑295(1)(a), (b) or (c) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 are satisfied in relation to the asset.
(2) For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑D of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that, at the balancing adjustment time, you stop using the asset, or having it installed ready for use, for any purpose and you expect never to use it, or have it installed ready for use, again.
(3) For the purposes of section 40‑180 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 assume that the reference in item 3 of the table in subsection 40‑180(2) of that Act to “because you stop using it for any purpose expecting never to use it again” were instead a reference to “because of section 40‑185 of the Income Tax (Transitional Provisions) Act 1997”.
(4) If a balancing adjustment event happens to a depreciating asset you hold because of this section, this Subdivision cannot apply to work out the decline in value of the asset for a later income year.
(1) You may choose that the decline in value of a particular depreciating asset for an income year is not to be worked out under this Subdivision.
(4) You must give the choice to the Commissioner by the day you lodge your income tax return for the income year to which the choice relates.
> Note: The Commissioner may defer the time for giving the choice: see section 388‑55 in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953.
you must use as the car limit the car depreciation limit under section 42‑80 of the former Act for the 2000‑01 financial year.
(1) Paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) of the new Act have effect in relation to a depreciating asset that you held at 1 July 2001 as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 were part of the asset’s decline in value under Division 40.
(a) you are entitled to a deduction under subsection 40‑285(2) of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset:
(ii) to which former section 61A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 applied, or for which the transition time under Division 57 in Schedule 2D to that Act occurred before 1 July 2001; and
(4) Division 40 of the new Act applies to a balancing adjustment event that occurs on or after 1 July 2001 for a depreciating asset you hold if you held the asset on that day.
(5) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or section 40‑370 of the new Act for a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset is reduced if:
(i) a depreciating asset that is not plant and that you started to hold under a contract entered into before 1 July 2001, you constructed where the construction started before that day or you started to hold in some other way before that day; or
(ii) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; and

> sum of reductions is the sum of the reductions in your deductions for the asset because you did not use it for a particular purpose.
(7) Section 118‑24 of the new Act applies to CGT event A1 (disposal of a CGT asset) happening to a depreciating asset if the event happens:
(a) if the depreciating asset is plant—at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the change in ownership constituting the disposal occurred after the applicable time mentioned in paragraph (a) or (b).
(i) an amount (the included amount) being included in the assessable income of the transferor under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997; and
(ii) the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑38(5) or 40‑40(4) of this Act; and
(3) The amount that is included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 is the included amount reduced by the deductible amount.
(a) on or after 1 July 2001, a company (the transferor) disposes of property that is not a depreciating asset to another company; and
(c) apart from this section, the disposal would have resulted in the transferor having an additional decline in value (the deductible amount) under subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) of this Act; and
(ii) the market value of any other property the transferor receives, or is entitled to receive, in respect of the disposal;
(2) There is no additional decline in value of the notional asset referred to in subsection 40‑35(5), 40‑37(5), 40‑40(4) or 40‑43(4) as a result of the disposal.
(3) Any amount that would be included in the transferor’s assessable income under subsection 40‑35(6), 40‑37(6), 40‑38(6), 40‑40(5) or 40‑43(5) of this Act, or subsection 40‑830(6) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, as a result of the disposal is reduced by the deductible amount.
If a balancing adjustment event for a firearm that you hold occurs because you surrender it after the commencement of this section under firearms surrender arrangements, any amount by which its termination value exceeds its adjustable value is not included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.
(a) any amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 because you did not use it for a particular purpose were an amount by which your deductions for the asset were reduced under section 40‑25 of the new Act; and
(b) the total decline element of the formula in that subsection included all amounts you have deducted or can deduct for the asset under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D entity and:
(i) the R&D entity can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D entity could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) the R&D entity can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act an amount for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) the R&D entity chooses tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D entity, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if the R&D entity is entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑305 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D entity can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D entity’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the R&D entity’s notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, the R&D entity is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑447 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑466 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D entity’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
(b) section 40‑292 of the new Act (as that section applies because of Part 2 of Schedule 4 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Research and Development) Act 2011);
to the extent that they would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D entity for the event, do so apply to the R&D entity for the event.
> Note 1: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (a) would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the R&D entity had new law deductions.
> Note 2: The section 40‑292 of the new Act mentioned in paragraph (b) would otherwise apply for the event in respect of the old law deductions.
(a) a balancing adjustment event happens in an income year (the event year) commencing on or after 1 July 2011 for an asset held by the R&D partnership and:
(i) the R&D partnership can deduct, for an income year, an amount under section 40‑25 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (the new Act), as that section applies apart from Division 355 of that Act and former section 73BC of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 (the old Act); or
(ii) the R&D partnership could have deducted, for an income year, an amount as described in subparagraph (i) if it had used the asset; and
(i) one or more partners of the R&D partnership can deduct (the old law deductions) under former section 73BA or 73BH of the old Act amounts for one or more income years for the asset;
(ii) one or more partners of the R&D partnership choose tax offsets under former section 73I of the old Act instead of deductions (also the old law deductions) under those former sections for one or more income years for the asset.
> Note: This section applies even if the partners are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset.
(2) In applying section 40‑290 of the new Act (including references in that section to the reduction of deductions under section 40‑25 of that Act) in relation to the asset, assume that using the asset for a taxable purpose includes using it for:
(a) the purpose of the carrying on, by or on behalf of the R&D partnership, of the research and development activities (within the meaning of former section 73B of the old Act) to which the old law deductions relate; or
(b) if one or more partners of the R&D partnership are entitled under section 355‑100 of the new Act to tax offsets for one or more income years for deductions (the new law deductions) under section 355‑520 of that Act for the asset—the purpose of conducting the R&D activities to which the new law deductions relate.
(a) that the R&D partnership can deduct for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year; or
(b) that is included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income for the asset under section 40‑285 of the new Act (after applying subsection (2) of this section) for the event year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> old law 1.25 rate deductions means the sum of the partners’ notional Division 40 deductions, and notional Division 42 deductions, (if any) for the asset that were multiplied by 1.25 in working out the old law deductions.
(3A) In applying Division 355 of the new Act in relation to the asset for the income year, an R&D entity (the partner) that is a partner in the R&D partnership and is entitled to one or more new law deductions for one or more income years for the asset, is taken to have:
(a) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—a clawback amount under section 355‑449 of the new Act for the income year; or
(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is a deduction—a catch up amount under section 355‑468 of the new Act for the income year;

(b) if the section 40‑285 amount is an amount included in the R&D partnership’s assessable income—so much of the section 40‑285 amount as does not exceed the total decline in value.
> sum of new law deductions means the sum of each partner’s new law deductions mentioned in paragraph (2)(b) of this section.
(4) Section 40‑293 of the new Act, to the extent that it would otherwise apply apart from this section to the R&D partnership or its partners for the event, does not so apply to the R&D partnership and the partners for the event.
> Note: Section 40‑293 of the new Act would otherwise apply for the event in a case where the partners had new law deductions.
(1) You may exclude an amount that has been included in your assessable income for plant as a result of a balancing adjustment event that occurred in your 1999‑2000 or 2000‑01 income year to the extent that you choose under section 42‑290 of the former Act to treat that amount as an amount you have deducted for the decline in value of replacement plant.
(b) at the end of the income year in which you acquired it, you used it, or had it installed ready for use, wholly for the purpose of producing assessable income; and
(3) The adjustable value of the replacement plant is reduced by the amount covered by the choice as at the first day of the income year in which you acquired it.
(a) there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to plant; and
(b) the transferor referred to in that section was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act.
(2) The transferee works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(a) the transferor started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(d) the transferor acquired it from an entity that was working out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act and paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this subsection applied to that entity or to the earliest successive transferor.
(3) The transferee also works out the decline in value of the plant under subsection 40‑10(3) or 40‑12(3) of this Act using the same method as the transferor if:
(b) the transferor, or an earlier successive transferor, was using a rate for the plant under subsection 42‑160(1) or 42‑165(1) of the former Act; and

(4) For the purposes of item 2 in the table in subsection (3), an entity is treated as if it is not carrying on a business in relation to the activities of a partnership in which the entity is a partner unless the entity is connected with the partnership.
(5) A lease of plant referred to in item 3 of the table in subsection (3) is an agreement (including a renewal of an agreement) under which the holder of the plant grants a right to use the plant to another entity, but not a hire purchase agreement or a short‑term hire agreement.
(a) for the diminishing value method—replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑70(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; or
(i) replacing the component in the formula in subsection 40‑75(1) of the new Act that includes the plant’s effective life with the rate the transferor, or the earliest successive transferor, was using; and
(ii) increasing the plant’s cost under Division 42 of the former Act by any amounts included in the second element of the plant’s cost after 30 June 2001.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).

(b) if the entity did not carry on a business in each of the current year and the 2 years before the current year, the number of those income years in which the entity carried on a business.
> Note: An entity is treated as carrying on a business if it is winding up a business and it was previously a small business taxpayer: see subsection (11).
(c) that part of the value of the business supplies the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies it made during the year to entities connected with it when they were connected with it; and
(d) that part of the value of the business supplies entities connected with the primary entity made in the income year that is attributable to supplies the connected entities made during the year to the primary entity when they were connected with it; and

(b) for other supplies the entity makes during the year in the course of carrying on a business—the prices (as defined by section 9‑75 of the GST Act) of the supplies.
(1) The amount included in your assessable income under subsection 40‑285(1) or 104‑240(1) of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event occurring for:
(a) plant that you acquired at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or
(c) for a paragraph (a) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event; or
(d) for a paragraph (b) case—there would have been a reduction under subsection 42‑192(2) of the former Act as a result of that event if the asset were plant.
(3) There is no reduction under subsection (1) to an amount included in your assessable income under subsection 104‑240(1) if the balancing adjustment event results in a discount capital gain under Division 115.
(4) However, you can choose not to make a reduction under subsection (1) and instead take advantage of the discount capital gain.
(5) Subsection (6) applies to an entity (the transferee) if there is roll‑over relief under section 40‑340 of the new Act as a result of a balancing adjustment event happening to a depreciating asset held by the transferee.
(i) the transferor referred to in section 40‑340 of the new Act started to hold the plant under a contract entered into at or before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999; or

(1) A low‑value pool you created under Subdivision 42‑M of the former Act continues under the new Act as if it had been created under Subdivision 40‑E of the new Act.
(2) For the purposes of working out the decline in value of depreciating assets in such a pool for your income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs, step 3 of the method statement in subsection 40‑440(1) of the new Act applies to the pool closing balance, worked out under section 42‑470 of the former Act, for the income year before that year.
For the purposes of Subdivision 40‑E of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997, you cannot allocate a depreciating asset to a low‑value pool if:

and you would have been able to deduct amounts for the qualifying amount for the income year in which 1 July 2001 occurs under the former Act if it had continued to apply.
(i) for a water facility—the amount of capital expenditure you incurred on the construction, manufacture, installation or acquisition of the water facility; or
(ii) for a horticultural plant or a grapevine—the amount of capital expenditure incurred that is attributable to the establishment of the plant or grapevine; and
(c) amounts that have been deducted or can be deducted for the qualifying amount under the former Act or the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 are taken to be a decline in value under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act.
(a) you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on a water facility; and
(2) Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act applies to the water facility on the basis specified in subsection 40‑515(2) of this Act, and no other taxpayer can deduct amounts for it under the new Act.
The reference in subsection 40‑555(1) of the new Act to a person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount under Subdivision 40‑F of the new Act for expenditure on a water facility includes a reference to the person having deducted or being able to deduct an amount for it under:
(1) This section applies to you if you have deducted or can deduct an amount under Division 387 of the former Act for an amount (the qualifying amount) of expenditure on:
(2) You deduct amounts for the qualifying amount under Subdivision 40‑G of the new Act in the same way you were writing it off under Division 387 of the former Act.

The exemption provided by section 330‑60 of the former Act continues to apply to ordinary income derived before 20 August 2001.
If:
(d) it is reasonable to conclude that you did this for the main purpose of ensuring that deductions for project amounts in relation to that project would be worked out under section 40‑832 of that Act;
(a) you have deducted or can deduct amounts for a ship under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 as in force before its repeal by Schedule 1 to the Tax Laws Amendment (Repeal of Inoperative Provisions) Act 2006; and
(a) the cost of the ship when this section commences is its cost under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(b) the ship’s adjustable value when this section commences is its depreciated value under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 just before that time; and
(c) paragraphs 40‑285(1)(a) and (2)(a) have effect as if amounts you have deducted or can deduct under section 57AM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, as in force before its repeal, are taken to be part of the ship’s decline in value under Subdivision 40‑B of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997.

(1) For disposals of plant or interests in plant on or after 22 February 1999 and before 11.45 am, by legal time in the Australian Capital Territory, on 21 September 1999, Division 45 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies with the modifications specified in this section.
(b) the amounts you have deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant or, if you disposed of an interest in the plant, so much of those amounts as is attributable to that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or
(b) that part of the amounts the partnership has deducted or can deduct for depreciation of the plant that has been or would be reflected in your interest in the partnership net income or partnership loss (your partnership amount) or, if you disposed of part of your interest in the plant, so much of your partnership amount as is attributable to that part of that interest.
(a) it is included in that assessable income under a provision of this Act outside this Division and Parts 3‑1 and 3‑3 (about capital gains and losses); or
