FF 4: Threshold for application of interest apportionment rule
or “Rule for dividing interest no longer applies”

You could also call this:

“How to calculate if a group spent too much on interest (no longer applies)”

This part of the law used to explain how to figure out if a group had too much interest expense. It was part of the rules about how certain transactions are treated for tax purposes in the Income Tax Act 2007. However, this section doesn’t apply anymore. It was removed from the law on 30 June 2009. If you need to know about current rules for interest expenses, you should look at other parts of the tax law that are still in effect.
