Section 146 | Adjustment for changes in accounting policies and prior period errors

Where there has been a change to the net assets and liabilities of a member of a multinational group at the start of an accounting period, the underlying profits of that member for that period are to be adjusted to include the amount of that change if the change is attributable to—

(a)a change in accounting policy that affects income or expenses included in determining the member’s adjusted profits, or

(b)a correction of an error reflected in the determination, for the purposes of this Part, of the adjusted profits of the member for a previous accounting period, except to the extent the error results in a recalculation under section 217(5) (post filing adjustments of covered taxes).^F1
