Abstract:
Section 475 was added by section 13223(a) of the Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1993, Pub. L. 103-66, 107 Stat.481, and is effective for all taxable years ending on or after December 31, 1993. The statutory requirements under 26 U.S.C. 475 are codified under 26 CFR Part 1, sections 1.475 et al. Information collection requirements under § 1.475(a)-4 sets forth an elective safe harbor that permits dealers in securities and dealers in commodities to elect to use the values of positions reported on certain financial statements as the fair market values of those positions for purposes of section 475 of the Internal Revenue Code (Code). This safe harbor is intended to reduce the compliance burden on taxpayers and to improve the administrability of the valuation requirement of section 475. The recordkeeping requirement under section 1.475(b)-4 are required to determine whether exemption from mark- to-market treatment is properly claimed, and will be used to make that determination upon audit of taxpayer's books and records. The information under section 1.475(c)-1(a)(3)(iii), is necessary to determine whether a consolidated group has elected to disregard inter-member transactions in determining a member's status as a dealer in securities.
