Tax Determination Details




4164 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 142 29 NOVEMBER 2012

5. Interpretation

In this determination (and the Explanation), unless the context otherwise requires:

Words and expressions that are not defined elsewhere in the determination have the same meaning as in section YA1 of the Income Tax Act 2007;

NZ IFRS 9 means the New Zealand Equivalent to International Financial Reporting Standard 9 – Financial Instruments, or equivalent as updated or changed from time to time.

6. Method

Profit Emerging Method

The profit emerging method is illustrated in the following formula:

AI = AC – (PC x OF)
TECC

Where:

AI = assessable income of an ABD for an income year

AC = actual cash collected from the ABD during the income year

PC = purchase costs of ABD

OF = original cash forecasted to be collected during the income year

TECC = total expected cash to be collected over the spreading period, forecast at date of purchase

Once the cost of the ABD is fully amortised, cash collected after the spreading period will be treated as derived in the income year in which it is received.

Base Price Adjustment Calculation

The base price adjustment calculation arising upon the transfer of ABDs from NZC to NZC-2, members of the same consolidated group at the date of transfer (but not for the whole income year), is illustrated in the following formula:

BPA = C – I + E + AR

Where:

C = Consideration
= total cash collected + consideration for transfer – purchase cost

Consideration for transfer = PC – D – (F x 336/366)

PC = purchase costs of ABD

D = total deductions allowed in prior income years for the ABD

F = NZC’s original forecast deduction for the ABD for the whole of the 2012 income year, expressed as PC x OF/TECC

I = income

E = expenditure

AR = amounts remitted

7. Example
