FB 15: Specified livestock valued under herd scheme

You could also call this:

“Rules for transferring herd-scheme livestock in relationship property settlements”

When you transfer specified livestock as part of a relationship property settlement, and you’ve been valuing that livestock using the herd scheme, you need to follow some special rules. These rules are found in sections EC 4B and EC 4C of the law. These sections talk about how to handle livestock in these situations. Remember, this only applies if you’ve been using the herd scheme to value your livestock before the transfer.
