Article Abstract:

The amendment of Section 732(c) by the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 can still restrict basis shifting opportunities regardless of the changes applied to section 708(b)(1)(B) in the Final Regulations. The final regulations derived some beneficial opportunities by removing deemed asset distributions and contributions.
