(a)the numerator is the aggregate of—

(ii)the mean of the appropriate parts of the opening and closing amounts of the investment reserve; and
(b)the denominator is the aggregate of—

(2)Where in addition to the revenue account prepared for the purposes of the Insurance Companies Act 1982 in respect of the whole of any business carried on by a company there are prepared for the purposes of that Act revenue accounts relating to parts of the business, amounts referred to in sections 432C to 432E shall, so far as they relate to those parts, be ascertained by reference to the latter accounts rather than by reference to the former.
(3)Sections 432C and 432D apply where the business with which an account is concerned (“the relevant business”) relates exclusively to policies or contracts under which the policy holders or annuitants are not eligible to participate in surplus; and section 432E applies where the relevant business relates wholly or partly to other policies or contracts.

(6)Where the category of business in question is a class of life assurance business, for the purposes of this section “liabilities” does not include liabilities of the overseas life assurance business.
(1)To the extent that the amount brought into account as the increase or decrease in the value of assets is attributable to assets linked solely to life assurance business, pension business or basic life assurance business, or to assets of the overseas life assurance fund which are linked solely to overseas life assurance business, it shall be referable to the category of business concerned.

(a)the amount determined in accordance with subsection (2) below, or
(b)the amount determined in accordance with subsection (3) below,
whichever is the greater.
(2)For the purposes of subsection (1) above there shall be determined the amount which is such as to secure—
(a)in a case where the relevant business is mutual business, that
(b)in any other case, that
where—
S is the surplus of the relevant business;
AS is so much of that surplus as is allocated to persons entitled to the benefits provided for by the policies or contracts to which the relevant business relates;
CAS is so much of the surplus so allocated as is attributable to policies or contracts of the category of business concerned; and
CS is so much of the surplus of the relevant business as would remain if the relevant business were confined to business of the category concerned.
(3)For the purposes of subsection (1) above there shall also be determined the aggregate of—
(a)the applicable percentage of what is left of the mean of the opening and closing liabilities of the relevant business so far as referable to the category of business concerned after deducting from it the mean of the opening and closing values of any assets of the relevant business linked solely to that category of business, and
(b)the part of the net amount mentioned in subsection (1) above that is attributable to assets linked solely to that category of business.
(4)For the purposes of subsection (3) above “the applicable percentage”, in any case, is such percentage as may be determined for that case by or in accordance with an order made by the Treasury.
(5)Where the part of the net amount referable to a particular category or categories of business (“the subsection (3) category or categories”) is the amount determined in accordance with subsection (3) above, the amount determined in accordance with subsection (2) above in relation to any other category (“the relevant category”) shall be reduced by—
where—
X is the excess of the amount determined in accordance with subsection (3) above in the case of the subsection (3) category (or each of them) over the amount determined in its case (or the case of each of them) in accordance with subsection (2) above;
Y is so much of the surplus of the relevant business as is allocated to persons entitled to the benefits provided for by policies or contracts of the relevant category; and
Z is so much of the surplus of the relevant business as is allocated to persons entitled to the benefits provided for by policies or contracts of the category (or each of the categories) which is not a subsection (3) category.
(6)Where the category of business concerned is overseas life assurance business—
(a)if the part of the income brought into account that is attributable to assets of the overseas life assurance fund not linked solely to overseas life assurance business is greater than the amount arrived at under subsection (3)(a) above, this section shall have effect as if that part of that income were the amount so arrived at; and
(b)the amount which, apart from this paragraph, would be the part of the net amount referable to that category of business shall be—
(i)reduced by the part of the net amount attributable to distributions of companies resident in the United Kingdom relating to assets of the company’s overseas life assurance fund, and
(ii)increased by the amount which is income of the relevant business by virtue of section 441A.”

(6)Any question arising as to the operation of subsection (5) above shall be determined by the Special Commissioners who shall determine the question in the same manner as they determine appeals; but both the transferor and transferee shall be entitled to appear and be heard or to make representations in writing.
