Step 5.1: Calculate the amount by which the ADI's adjusted average equity capital is less than its minimum capital amount – the capital shortfall

Insert this amount at L on Worksheet 45: ADI outward investing entity's step 5

The proportion of debt deductions disallowed depends on the amount by which the ADI's adjusted average equity capital from step 1 is less than its minimum capital amount

Step 5.2: Calculate the ADI's average debt

Insert this amount at M on Worksheet 45: ADI outward investing entity's step 5

The average value for the income year, of the ADI's debt capital that gives rise to debt deductions in that year or any other income year. However, it does not include debt capital attributable to any of the ADI's overseas permanent establishments

Step 5.3: Divide the amount at L by the amount at M

Insert the result at N on Worksheet 45: ADI outward investing entity's step 5

This step works out what proportion to apply to the ADI's debt deductions to calculate the amount disallowed

Step 5.4: Calculate the ADI's debt deductions for the income year

Insert this amount at P on Worksheet 45: ADI outward investing entity's step 5

The calculation is applied to all the ADI's debt deductions for the year. Do not include any debt deductions attributable to any of the ADI's overseas permanent establishments

Step 5.5: Multiply the amount(s) at N by the amount at P. This is the amount of debt deductions disallowed

This calculates the amount of debt deduction disallowed. The debt deductions that would be allowed, but for thin capitalisation, are each reduced proportionately

Step 5.1: Capital shortfall (minimum capital amount – adjusted average equity capital)

(L) _____________

Step 5.2: Average debt

(M) _____________

Step 5.3: L /  M

(N) _____________

Step 5.4: Debt deductions for the income year.

(P) _____________

Step 5.5: N x P. This is the total debt deductions disallowed

= _______________
