Local file – Part B

Last updated 10 February 2021

Part B does not need to be completed for IRP transaction/RAS shown at Part A if the IRP transaction/RAS is covered by a category on the exclusions list. Further specific guidance on providing IRP agreements as part of Part B of the local file is also available in Appendix 8.

The following instructions apply if the IRP transaction/RAS shown at Part A is not covered by a category on the exclusions list.

  1. Transaction Identifier

Show the transaction identifier used in Part A for the IRP transaction/RAS.

  1. Which transfer pricing / capital asset pricing methodology has the IRP relied upon for this transaction/RAS?

Show the code for the transfer pricing methodology / capital asset pricing methodology the IRP has relied upon for this IRP transaction/RAS.

(LCMSF51)

  1. Is the reporting entity not able to obtain information from the IRP for the transfer pricing methodology the IRP relied upon for this transaction/RAS?

This question applies if the reporting entity indicates at Question 2 that the methodology is unknown.

If the reporting entity is not able to obtain information from the IRP of the relevant methodology the IRP relied upon for this transaction/RAS, indicate True.

Otherwise indicate False.

(LCMSF130)

  1. Is there written agreement documentation covering this transaction/RAS (as reported in Part A)?

If there is written agreement documentation covering this transaction/RAS (as reported in Part A), indicate True.

If there is no written agreement documentation evidencing the terms of the agreement covering this transaction/RAS (as reported in Part A), indicate False.

In the case of a foreign currency deferred payment arrangement transaction, Question 4 is asking whether there is a separate written agreement for the financing arrangement which results from deferral of payment of an amount of foreign currency owing under another underlying IRP transaction. Question 4 is not asking whether there is a written agreement for the underlying non-financing IRP transaction itself.

For example, if there is a FCDPTTS transaction because there was a deferred foreign currency payment arrangement for the sale price due and owing under an IRP commodity sale transaction, Question 4 is not asking if there is a written agreement for the IRP commodity sale transaction. It is instead asking if there is a separate written agreement for the financing arrangement which results from not satisfying the payment obligation.
