Values to be used in special casesU.K.

857Deemed market value acquisition: adjustment where nil accounting valueU.K.

(1)This section applies if—

(a)a company is treated for the purposes of this Part as acquiring an asset at market value, but

(b)the accounting value of the asset transferred is nil in the hands of the transferee.

(2)In such a case any reference in this Part to—

(a)the cost of the asset recognised for accounting purposes,

(b)the accounting value of the asset, or

(c)any loss recognised for accounting purposes in respect of capitalised expenditure on the asset,

is a reference to the cost, value or loss that would have been recognised if the asset had been acquired at market value.

(3)If the asset is revalued, the revaluation is ignored.

(4)In this section “revaluation” has the same meaning as in section 723 (see subsection (5) of that section) and “revalued” must be read accordingly.
