CH 10: Interest apportionment: reporting bank
or “How reporting banks split interest costs and include them as income”
You could also call this:

“How to split and count interest on public project debt for tax purposes”

If you are an excess debt entity, you might need to split up the interest you pay on public project debt. This happens when section FE 7B tells you to do so. If this applies to you, you need to work out how much of that interest should be counted as income. The amount you calculate using section FE 7B(3) becomes part of your income for the tax year. This means you’ll need to include this amount when you’re figuring out how much tax you owe.
