(d) Normalization Requirements.--
(1) In general.--A normalization method of accounting shall
not be treated as being used with respect to any public utility
property for purposes of section 167 or 168 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 if the taxpayer, in computing its cost of
service for ratemaking purposes and reflecting operating
results in its regulated books of account, reduces the excess
tax reserve more rapidly or to a greater extent than such
reserve would be reduced under the average rate assumption
method.
(2) Alternative method for certain taxpayers.--If, as of
the first day of the taxable year that includes the date of
enactment of this Act--
(A) the taxpayer was required by a regulatory
agency to compute depreciation for public utility
property on the basis of an average life or composite
rate method, and
(B) the taxpayer's books and underlying records did
not contain the vintage account data necessary to apply
the average rate assumption method,
the taxpayer will be treated as using a normalization method of
accounting if, with respect to such jurisdiction, the taxpayer
uses the alternative method for public utility property that is
subject to the regulatory authority of that jurisdiction.
(3) Definitions.--For purposes of this subsection--
(A) Excess tax reserve.--The term ``excess tax
reserve'' means the excess of--
(i) the reserve for deferred taxes (as
described in section 168(i)(9)(A)(ii) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986) as of the day
before the corporate rate reductions provided
in the amendments made by this section take
effect, over
(ii) the amount which would be the balance
in such reserve if the amount of such reserve
were determined by assuming that the corporate
rate reductions provided in this Act were in
effect for all prior periods.
(B) Average rate assumption method.--The average
rate assumption method is the method under which the
excess in the reserve for deferred taxes is reduced
over the remaining lives of the property as used in its
regulated books of account which gave rise to the
reserve for deferred taxes. Under such method, during
the time period in which the timing differences for the
property reverse, the amount of the adjustment to the
reserve for the deferred taxes is calculated by
multiplying--
(i) the ratio of the aggregate deferred
taxes for the property to the aggregate timing
differences for the property as of the
beginning of the period in question, by
(ii) the amount of the timing differences
which reverse during such period.
(C) Alternative method.--The ``alternative method''
is the method in which the taxpayer--
(i) computes the excess tax reserve on all
public utility property included in the plant
account on the basis of the weighted average
life or composite rate used to compute
depreciation for regulatory purposes, and
(ii) reduces the excess tax reserve ratably
over the remaining regulatory life of the
property.
(4) Tax increased for normalization violation.--If, for any
taxable year ending after the date of the enactment of this
Act, the taxpayer does not use a normalization method of
accounting for the corporate rate reductions provided in the
amendments made by this section--
(A) the taxpayer's tax for the taxable year shall
be increased by the amount by which it reduces its
excess tax reserve more rapidly than permitted under a
normalization method of accounting, and
(B) such taxpayer shall not be treated as using a
normalization method of accounting for purposes of
subsections (f)(2) and (i)(9)(C) of section 168 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

interest allocated to the partner under
clause (i)(II) which has previously
been treated under clause (ii) as
business interest paid or accrued by
the partner. The preceding sentence
shall also apply to transfers of the
partnership interest (including by
reason of death) in a transaction in
