(k) where the transferor is a trust, a
taxpayer's beneficial ownership in the
property ceases to be derived from the
taxpayer's capital interest in the transferor
because of the qualifying disposition and no
part of the taxpayer's capital interest in the
transferor was disposed of because of the
qualifying disposition, there shall,
immediately after the particular time, be
added to the cost otherwise determined of
the taxpayer's capital interest in the
transferee trust, the amount determined by
the formula
|
|
|
A x [(B - C)/B] - D
|
|
|
|
|
|
A is the cost amount to the taxpayer of the
taxpayer's capital interest in the
transferor immediately before the
particular time,

B is the fair market value immediately
before the particular time of the
taxpayer's capital interest in the
transferor,
|
|
|
C is the fair market value at the particular
time of the taxpayer's capital interest in
the transferor (determined as if the only
property disposed of at the particular
time were the particular property), and

|
|
|
|
|
(i) the amount, if any, by which the cost
amount to the taxpayer of the
taxpayer's capital interest in the
transferor immediately before the
particular time exceeds the fair market
value of the taxpayer's capital interest
in the transferor immediately before
the particular time, and

(ii) the maximum amount by which the
taxpayer's loss from a disposition of a
capital interest otherwise determined
could have been reduced because of
paragraph 107(1)(c) or (d) if the
taxpayer's capital interest in the
transferor had been disposed of
immediately before the particular
time;
|

|
(l) where paragraph (k) applies to the
qualifying disposition in respect of a
taxpayer, the amount that would be
determined under that paragraph in respect
of the qualifying disposition if the amount
determined for D in that paragraph were nil
shall, immediately after the particular time,
be deducted in computing the cost
otherwise determined of the taxpayer's
capital interest in the transferor;
|
|
|
(m) where paragraphs (j) and (k) do not
apply in respect of the qualifying
disposition, the transferor is deemed to
acquire the capital interest or part of it in the
transferee trust that is acquired as a
consequence of the qualifying disposition
|
|
|
(i) where the transferee trust is a personal
trust, at a cost equal to nil, and
|
|
|
(ii) in any other case, at a cost equal to the
excess determined under paragraph (b) in
respect of the qualifying disposition; and
|
|
|
(n) if the transferor is a trust and a taxpayer
disposes of all or part of an income interest
in the transferor because of the qualifying
disposition and, as a consequence, acquires
an income interest or a part of an income
interest in the transferee trust, for the
purpose of subsection 106(2), the taxpayer
is deemed not to dispose of any part of the
income interest in the transferor at the
particular time.

the fair market value of the particular interest
at that time is deemed to be not less than the
amount determined by the formula

(A - B) x (C/D)

A is the total fair market value at that time of
all properties of the trust,
