PART 6 U.K.Commencement and transitional provisions

Transitional adjustments relating to loan relationshipsU.K.

115(1)This paragraph applies to a loan relationship of a company if—U.K.

(a)amounts relating to the matters mentioned in section 306A(1) of CTA 2009 (as inserted by paragraph 3) in respect of the loan relationship have in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice been recognised in the company's accounts as items of other comprehensive income,

(b)those amounts have not subsequently been transferred to become items of profit or loss in an accounting period beginning before 1 January 2016, and

(c)those amounts have been brought into account for corporation tax purposes in an accounting period beginning before 1 January 2016.

(2)There is to be made an overall transitional adjustment of such amount as is just and reasonable in the circumstances having regard to the amounts which would otherwise be brought into account twice by the company for those purposes as credits or debits.

(3)The overall transitional adjustment must be made by making transitional adjustments in accordance with paragraph 116.

(4)In determining what amounts fall within sub-paragraph (1), it is to be assumed that the accounting policy applied in drawing up the company's accounts for the last accounting period of the company beginning before 1 January 2016 (“the pre-commencement period”) was also applied in previous accounting periods.

(5)But if the company's accounts for the pre-commencement period are in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice drawn up on an assumption as to the accounting policy in previous accounting periods which differs from that mentioned in sub-paragraph (4), that different assumption applies in determining what amounts fall within sub-paragraph (1).
