# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## Background

The notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-112129-23) that is the subject of these corrections is under sections 55, 56A, 59, and 1502 of the Internal Revenue Code.

## Need for Correction

As published, the notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-112129-23) contains errors that need to be corrected.

The Treasury Department and the IRS intended that CAMT basis be used in amortizing or depreciating property not subject to the rules in proposed § 1.56A-15 (AFSI adjustments for section 168 property) and proposed § 1.56A-16 (AFSI adjustments for qualified wireless spectrum property). Therefore, the Treasury Department and IRS correct proposed § 1.56A-1(d)(4) to clarify that to the extent the CAMT basis of an asset is different than its AFS basis, and if income and expense (as well as gain or loss) is recognized for AFSI purposes under the section 56A regulations, then such income or expense (as well as gain or loss) reflected in FSI is redetermined for AFSI purposes by reference to the CAMT basis of the asset.

The Treasury Department and the IRS intended that the simplified method for determining applicable corporation status take into account the adjustments provided to tax-exempt entities in section 56A(c)(12) and proposed § 1.56A-14. Therefore, the Treasury Department and IRS correct proposed § 1.59-2(g)(2) to take into account the adjustments provided to tax-exempt entities by proposed § 1.56A-14.

                    The Treasury Department and the IRS intended proposed § 1.56A-19(g)(4)(iii) and (g)(5)(iii) to prevent a section 351 transferee that is an applicable corporation from (i) causing a section 351 exchange to be treated as a covered recognition transaction by issuing a de minimis amount of boot to a section 351 transferor that is not an applicable corporation, and thereby (ii) determining the section 351 transferee's CAMT basis in the assets received to be its AFS basis (that is, taking a fair value basis in the assets). Therefore, the Treasury Department and IRS correct proposed § 1.56A-19(g)(4)(iii) and (g)(5)(iii) to clarify that, if the amount of boot issued by the section 351 transferee to a section 351 transferor that is not an applicable corporation is less than ten percent of the fair market value of the assets transferred to the section 351                           ( print page 104910)                        transferee by that section 351 transferor, the section 351 transferee determines its CAMT basis in the transferred assets under section 362 (that is, the CAMT basis of the assets in the hands of the section 351 transferor), increased by the regular tax gain recognized by the section 351 transferor. Proposed § 1.56A-19(g)(6)(iv) (                    *Example 4*) is revised to reflect the corrections to proposed § 1.56A-19(g)(5)(iii).                

This document also contains corrections for other errors contained in the notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-112129-23) that need to be corrected.

                        (                        *1*) The corporation retains its AFSI for any relevant period prior to the change in ownership to determine whether the corporation meets the average annual AFSI test (as described in paragraph (c) of this section) for the taxable year in which the change in ownership occurs or for any subsequent taxable year; but                    

                        (                        *2*) The corporation does not include that person's AFSI in the corporation's AFSI for any period prior to the change in ownership (notwithstanding that the corporation and the person were treated as related under the relevant relationship criteria during some, or all, of that period) to determine whether the corporation meets the average annual AFSI test for the taxable year in which the change in ownership occurs or for any subsequent taxable year in which the corporation and the person are not treated as related under the relevant relationship criteria.                    

                        (B)                         *Person related to corporation following ownership change.*                         Following a corporation's change in ownership, each person treated as related to the corporation under the relevant relationship criteria determines whether it meets the average annual AFSI test (if applicable) for the taxable year in which the change in ownership occurs or for any subsequent taxable year by separately applying the rules in this paragraph (f). For example, such person does not include the corporation's AFSI in the person's AFSI for any relevant period prior to the corporation's change in ownership if the corporation and the person were never previously related under the relevant relationship criteria. For the avoidance of doubt, such person includes the corporation's AFSI in its AFSI for any relevant period following the change in ownership during which the parties are related under the relevant relationship criteria, unless paragraph (f)(2)(i)(A) of this section applies.                    

                        (C)                         *Change in ownership.*                         For purposes of paragraphs (f)(2)(i)(A) and (B) of this section, a corporation experiences a change in ownership during a taxable year of the corporation if—                    

                        (                        *1*) The corporation is not a test group parent (as defined in paragraph (b)(7) of this section);                    

                        (                        *2*) The corporation is treated as related to a test group parent under the relevant relationship criteria as of the first day of the taxable year; and                    

                        (                        *3*) As a result of a transaction (or series of related transactions) the corporation and the test group parent no longer satisfy the relevant relationship criteria as of the last day of the taxable year.
