Dear Sirs:
Re: Subparagraph 95(2)(a)(ii) of the Income Tax Act (the "Act")
This is in response to your letter of January 24, 1990. Provided an amount paid or payable to a foreign affiliate ("FA1") of a taxpayer by another foreign affiliate ("FA2") of a taxpayer is deductible in computing the amount prescribed to be FA2's earnings or loss from an active business other than a business carried on in Canada, it is our view such an amount would be included in the computation of FA1's income from an active business pursuant to subparagraph 95(2)(a)(ii) of the Act.
We trust this is the information you require.
Yours truly,
for Director Reorganizations and Non-Resident Division Rulings Directorate Legislative and Intergovernmental Affairs Branch
