Consolidation: “at the leaving time”
05.12.2008
The Federal Court (Kenny J) has held that, in working out the tax cost setting amount under the consolidation rules where a subsidiary leaves a consolidated group, liabilities of the leaving entity “at the leaving time” are determined by reference to liabilities “just before” the leaving entity ceases to be a subsidiary member (Handbury Holdings Pty Ltd v FCT [2008] FCA 1787).
