(2) Subject to subsections (3), (5) and (7), there is prescribed for the purpose of subsection 142.5(5) of the Act in respect of a taxpayer for a taxation year that ends after October 30, 1994 the amount determined by the formula
A × B/1825
where
- A
- is the number of days (other than February 29) in the year that are before the day that is five years after the first day of the taxation year of the taxpayer that includes October 31, 1994; and
- B
- is the taxpayer’s transition deduction minus the amount, if any, required by subsection (4) or paragraph (6)(b) to be subtracted.
(3) If subsection 88(1) of the Act has applied to the winding-up of a taxpayer (in this subsection referred to as the “subsidiary”),
(a) the value of A in subsection (2) shall be determined in respect of the subsidiary without including any days that are after the day on which the subsidiary’s assets were distributed to its parent on the winding-up; and
(b) there is prescribed for the purpose of subsection 142.5(5) of the Act in respect of the parent for its taxation year that includes the day referred to in paragraph (a) the total of
(i) the amount that would be determined under subsection (2) in respect of the parent for the year if the parent’s transition deduction did not include the subsidiary’s transition deduction, and
(ii) the amount that would be determined under subsection (2) in respect of the parent for the year if
(A) the value of A in that subsection were determined without including the day referred to in paragraph (a) and any days before that day, and
(B) the value of B in that subsection were equal to the subsidiary’s transition deduction.
(4) If subsection 138(11.5) or (11.94) of the Act has applied to the transfer of an insurance business by an insurer, there shall be subtracted, in determining the value of B in subsection (2) in respect of the insurer for a taxation year that ends after the insurer ceased to carry on all or substantially all of the business, the part of the insurer’s transition deduction that is included, because of paragraph 138(11.5)(k) of the Act, in the transition deduction of the person to whom the business was transferred.
(5) If subsection 98(6) of the Act deems a partnership (in this subsection referred to as the “new partnership”) to be a continuation of another partnership (in this subsection referred to as the “predecessor partnership”),
(a) the value of A in subsection (2) shall be determined in respect of the predecessor partnership without including any days that are after the day on which the predecessor partnership’s property was transferred to the new partnership; and
(b) there is prescribed for the purpose of subsection 142.5(5) of the Act in respect of the new partnership for its taxation year that includes the day referred to in paragraph (a) the total of
(i) the amount that would be determined under subsection (2) in respect of the new partnership for the year if its transition deduction did not include the predecessor partnership’s transition deduction, and
(ii) the amount that would be determined under subsection (2) in respect of the new partnership for the year if
(A) the value of A in that subsection were determined without including the day referred to in paragraph (a) and any days before that day, and
(B) the value of B in that subsection were equal to the predecessor partnership’s transition deduction.
(6) If a taxpayer ceases to carry on all or substantially all of a business, otherwise than as a result of a merger to which subsection 87(2) of the Act applies, a winding-up to which subsection 88(1) of the Act applies or a transfer of the business to which subsection 98(6) or 138(11.5) or (11.94) of the Act applies,
(a) there is prescribed for the purpose of subsection 142.5(5) of the Act in respect of the taxpayer for its taxation year in which the cessation of business occurs, in addition to the amount prescribed by subsection (2), the amount, if any, by which
(i) the part of the taxpayer’s transition deduction that can reasonably be attributed to the business
exceeds
(ii) that part of the total of the amounts included under subsection 142.5(5) of the Act in computing the income of the taxpayer for preceding taxation years that can reasonably be considered to be in respect of the amount determined under subparagraph (i); and
(b) there shall be subtracted, in determining the value of B in subsection (2) in respect of the taxpayer for the year or a subsequent taxation year, the amount determined under subparagraph (a)(i).
(7) If a taxpayer ceases at any time to be a financial institution otherwise than because it ceases to carry on a business,
(a) there is prescribed for the purpose of subsection 142.5(5) of the Act in respect of the taxpayer for its taxation year that ended immediately before that time, the amount, if any, by which
(i) the taxpayer’s transition deduction
exceeds
