1(1)Except as otherwise provided by this Part of this Act, in determining the value of a transferor's estate at any time his liabilities at that time shall be taken into account.
(2)The liabilities to be taken into account in determining the value of a transferor's estate immediately after a transfer of value include his liability for tax on the value transferred but not his liability (if any) for any other tax or duty resulting from the transfer ; and in computing his liability for tax—
(a)no allowance shall be made for the fact that the tax will not be due immediately ; and
(b)any tax recovered otherwise than from the transferor or from a person liable for it under section 25(8) of this Act shall be treated as having been paid in discharge of a liability in respect of which the transferor had a right to reimbursement.
(3)Except in the case of a liability imposed by law, a liability incurred by the transferor shall be taken into account only to the extent that it was incurred for a consideration in money or money's worth.
(4)Subject to sub-paragraph (2) above, where a liability falls to be discharged after the time at which it is to be taken into account it shall be valued as at the time at which it is to be taken into account.
(5)A liability in respect of which there is a right to reimbursement shall be taken into account only to the extent (if any) that reimbursement cannot reasonably be expected to be obtained.
2A liability which is an incumbrance on any property shall, so far as possible, be taken to reduce the value of that property.
3Where a liability taken into account is a liability to a person resident outside the United Kingdom which neither—
(a)falls to be discharged in the United Kingdom ; nor
(b)is an incumbrance on property in the United Kingdom,
it shall, so far as possible, be taken to reduce the value of property outside the United Kingdom.
