(4)The power to make adjustments by virtue of this section may be exercised despite any time limit imposed by or under any enactment.

(b)if it is necessary to apportion an amount for the straddling period to the two separate periods, it is to be apportioned—

(i)on a time basis according to the respective length of the separate periods, or

(ii)if that would produce a result that is unjust or unreasonable, on a just and reasonable basis.

(3)A “straddling period” means an accounting period or payment period (as the case may be) beginning before 1 January 2018 and ending on or after that date.
