Crown Cork & Seal Canada Inc. v. The Queen, 90 DTC 6586 (FCTD) -- summary under Depreciable Property

By services, 28 November, 2015

At the request of the taxpayer, the vendor of equipment purported to pass title in the equipment to the taxpayer in its 1979 taxation year. However, the equipment at that point was a "mass of metal" which was not yet suitable for the taxpayer's manufacturing operations. Accordingly, the taxpayer had not acquired a Class 29 asset in its 1979 taxation year:

"That which the taxpayer acquires must be the asset upon which it is permitted to deduct capital cost allowance and not mere components to go with that which has not yet been developed." (p. 6592)
