Unified Loss Rules<br />

Basis Reduction Rule – Lower Tiers<br />

When subsidiary being disposed of owns lower-tier subsidiary and the lower-tier<br />

subsidiary is not being transferred in the same transaction:<br />

► To determine the disconformity amount:<br />

► Basis in the lower tier subsidiary may be treated as reduced by a tentative<br />

reduction amount.<br />

► The tentative reduction amount is the lesser of the lower-tier subsidiary’s net positive adjustment<br />

and disconformity amount.<br />

► In case of multiple tiers of nontransferred lower tier subsidiaries:<br />

► Generally rules first apply to determine the tentatively reduced basis of<br />

stock of the subsidiary at the lowest tier. Then apply at each tier moving<br />

up the tiers.<br />

► The tentative reductions are treated as noncapital, nondeductible expenses<br />

that tier up under the principles of Treas. Reg. § 1.1502-32.<br />
