(1)Where there has been a transfer of assets or liabilities to a member of a multinational group—
(a)if the transfer forms part of a qualifying reorganisation (see section 212), the value of the assets or liabilities is, for the purpose of determining the adjusted profits of the member, the carrying value of the assets or liabilities in the hands of the transferor immediately before the transfer, or
(b)otherwise, the value of the assets or liabilities, for that purpose, is the carrying value of the assets or liabilities immediately after the transfer as determined under the accounting standard used in determining the underlying profits of the member for the purposes of this Part and subject to the adjustments to those profits made in accordance with Chapter 4.
(2)But subsection (3) applies where—
(a)subsection (1)(b) applies to the transfer,
(b)the transfer is from another member of the group, and
(c)neither a gain nor a loss is recorded in the underlying profits accounts of the transferor in respect of that transfer.
(3)Where this subsection applies the adjusted profits of both the transferor and the transferee are to be adjusted to secure that the transfer is reflected on an arm’s length basis (see section 149(7)).
(4)Where a member of a multinational group transfers assets or liabilities to another entity in the course of a qualifying reorganisation, and recognises a non-qualifying gain or loss as a result of that transfer—
(a)that gain or loss, to the extent it is non-qualifying, is to be included in the adjusted profits of the member, and
(b)where the other entity is a member of a multinational group, the value of the assets or liabilities is, for the purposes of determining the adjusted profits of that member, to be adjusted to exclude the non-qualifying gain or loss in a manner consistent with the tax treatment of the assets or liabilities.
