Taxation Determination TD 1999/1 is withdrawn with effect from today.
The views in TD 1999/1 conflict with the views expressed by the Federal Court in MLC Limited & Anor v. Deputy Commissioner of Taxation [2002] FCA 1491. That case held that the criterion for the deduction for building allowance under Division 10D of the ITAA 1936 (rewritten as Division 43 of the ITAA 1997) is not expenditure incurred but the use of the building as non-residential premises for the purposes of gaining assessable income. As a consequence, the court held that the building allowance deductions are not excluded by the operation of subsection 82(2) of the ITAA 1936 in the calculation of any assessable profit or deductible loss arising from the sale of the property.
