SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background and Explanation of
Provisions
Overview
Section 381 of the Code was enacted
in 1954 to provide statutory authority
for determining the carryover of certain
tax attributes, including accounting
methods, in certain corporate
reorganizations and tax-free
liquidations. Regulations implementing
section 381(c)(4) were issued on August
5, 1964 (29 FR 11263). On August 23,
1972, the IRS proposed to revise these
regulations (37 FR 16947). On December
23, 1998, the IRS withdrew the
regulations that had been proposed in
1972 (63 FR 71047). Regulations
implementing section 381(c)(5) were
issued on January 15, 1975 (40 FR
2684).
Section 1.381(c)(4)–1 generally
provides that after a section 381(a)
transaction, the accounting method or
combination of methods used by the
parties to the section 381(a) transaction
prior to the transaction will continue.
However, when the accounting methods
used prior to the section 381(a)
transaction cannot continue to be used
after the transaction, § 1.381(c)(4)–1
identifies the accounting method(s) to
use after the transaction. Section
1.381(c)(5)–1 provides similar rules
regarding inventory accounting
methods.
The IRS and the Treasury Department
are aware that the current regulations
are inconsistent in the treatment of
adjustments for inventory methods and
for other accounting methods, and that
there is confusion regarding the
appropriate procedure for making
accounting method changes required by
section 381. In a notice of proposed
rulemaking (68 FR 25310) issued on
May 12, 2003, regarding sections 263A
and 448, the IRS and the Treasury
Department indicated that guidance
regarding the accounting method(s) to
be used after a section 381(a) transaction
was contemplated. This notice of
proposed rulemaking provides that
guidance.
This notice of proposed rulemaking
generally continues many of the
provisions of the regulations originally
issued in 1964 and 1975 regarding the
accounting method or combination of
methods to be used by the corporation
that acquires the assets of another
corporation in a section 381(a)
transaction. However, the following
