This Part has effect as if—

(a)

a period of account of L (“L's period”) ended with the assignment, and

(b)

a period of account of the assignee (“A's period”) began with the assignment.

(3)

Any cumulative accountancy rental excess for L's period becomes the cumulative accountancy rental excess for A's period.
