Payment would have been taxed in Australia

This subsection applies if:


(a) the investor country identified in subsection 832-410(3) is Australia; and


(b) either:


(i) the amount of the *deduction/non-inclusion mismatch exceeds the amount that would be the amount of that mismatch if the amount of the payment that was *subject to Australian income tax for an income year was instead worked out on the assumption in subsection (4); or

(ii) on the assumption in subsection (4), the payment would have given rise to a *hybrid financial instrument mismatch, a *hybrid payer mismatch or a *reverse hybrid mismatch.


Payment would have been taxed in a foreign country

832-405(3)    
This subsection applies if:


(a) the investor country identified in subsection 832-410(3) is a foreign country; and


(b) either:


(i) the amount of the *deduction/non-inclusion mismatch exceeds the amount that would be the amount of that mismatch if the amount of the payment that was *subject to foreign income tax for a *foreign tax period was instead worked out on the assumption in subsection (4); or

(ii) on the assumption in subsection (4), the payment would have given rise to a *hybrid financial instrument mismatch, a *hybrid payer mismatch or a *reverse hybrid mismatch.


Assumption - payment was made to the investing taxpayer

832-405(4)
