Question: Company A, a Canadian corporation, sold a piece of equipment to its subsidiary, Company B, located in another country, for $200,000. However, the fair market value of the equipment was determined to be $250,000. Calculate the deemed benefit to Company A and its
tax implications.
Answer: When transactions occur between non-arm's length parties, such as a parent company and its subsidiary, tax authorities often require that transactions be conducted at arm's length, meaning at fair market value. In this scenario, Company A sold equipment to its subsidiary, Company B, for $200,000, which is less than the fair market value of $250,000. The difference between the fair market value and the actual selling price represents a deemed benefit to Company A.
The deemed benefit would be calculated as follows:
Deemed Benefit
=
Fair Market Value
−
Selling Price
Deemed Benefit=Fair Market Value−Selling Price
\text{Deemed Benefit} = $250,000 - $200,000 = $50,000
Company A would need to report a deemed benefit of $50,000 for tax purposes. This amount is considered additional income for Company A and is subject to taxation accordingly. It's crucial for companies to ensure that transactions with related parties are conducted at arm's length to comply with tax regulations and avoid potential tax implications.
