#### 165‑35 Starting base adjustments for partial disposal of starting base assets (1) If: (a) during an \*MRRT year, a miner ceases to \*hold a part of a \*starting base asset relating to a mining project interest that a miner has; and (b) the cessation would be a \*starting base adjustment event if the part were a starting base asset; apply this Division as if that part were a starting base asset (the disposed asset) and as if the cessation were a starting base adjustment event for the disposed asset. (2) The adjustable value of the disposed asset is a reasonable proportion of what would be the adjustable value of the \*starting base asset of which it is a part, if a \*starting base adjustment event were to happen for that starting base asset at the time of the cessation. > Note: Example: A miner holds a truck that, at the start of a particular MRRT year, has a base value of $10 million and a remaining effective life of 10 years. Halfway through the MRRT year, the miner sells a 75% interest in the truck for $6 million. > Note: At the time of the sale, the adjustable value of the entire truck is $9.5 million, so the adjustable value of the disposed asset is $7.125 million (75% of $9.5 million). The termination value of the disposed asset is $6 million. > Note: Under subsection 165‑10(2), the miner has a starting base adjustment amount for the truck of $1.125 million ($7.125 million ‑ $6 million). (3) Despite subsection (1), this section does not apply to the disposed asset if at the same time as the miner ceases to \*hold the disposed asset, the miner also ceases to hold the remainder of the \*starting base asset.
