Sec. 1.482-2  [Corrected]

    1. On page 35002, column 2, Sec. 1.482-2 (a)(1)(ii)(A), 
introductory text, line 2, the language ``indebtedness. Paragraph (e) 
of this'' is corrected to read ``indebtedness. Paragraph (a) of this''.
    2. On page 35002, column 2, Sec. 1.482-2 (a)(1)(ii)(B), line 2, the 
language ``paragraph (e) does not apply to so much'' is corrected to 
read ``paragraph (a) does not apply to so much''.
    3. On page 35005, columns 2 and 3, the undesignated paragraph 
following Sec. 1.482-2(a)(3)(iv) is removed and Sec. 1.482-2 (a)(3)(iv)

Sec. 1.482-2  Determination of taxable income in specific situations.

    (a) * * *
    (3) * * *
    (iv) Fourth, section 482 and paragraphs (b) through (d) of this 
section and Secs. 1.482-3 through 1.482-7, if applicable, may be 
applied by the district director to make any appropriate allocations, 
other than an interest rate adjustment, to reflect an arm's length 
transaction based upon the principal amount of the loan or advance and 
the interest rate as adjusted under paragraph (a)(3) (i), (ii) or (iii) 
of this section. For example, assume that two commonly controlled 
taxpayers enter into a deferred payment sale of tangible property and 
no interest is provided, and assume also that section 483 is applied to 
treat a portion of the stated sales price as interest, thereby reducing 
the stated sales price. If after this recharacterization of a portion 
of the stated sales price as interest, the recomputed sales price does 
not reflect an arm's length sales price under the principles of 
Sec. 1.482-3, the district director may make other appropriate 
allocations (other than an interest rate adjustment) to reflect an 
arm's length sales price.
