Dear Sirs:
Re: Patronage Allocations
This is in reply to your letter of March 12, 1996 wherein you enquire about the characterization of amounts included in income pursuant to subsection 135(7) of the Income Tax Act.
Determinations as to whether an amount that is required to be included in computing a taxpayer's income as an allocation in proportion to patronage pursuant to subsection 135(7) of the Act is income from an active business (and eligible for the small business deduction or the manufacturing and processing profits deduction), or is considered income that is included in determining "resource profits", as defined in section 1204 of the Income Tax Regulations, are questions of fact. We have not been provided with all facts that could be relevant in making such determinations, and, as such, we regret that we are unable to comment on the subject matter of your letter.
If your enquiry relates to proposed transactions, we would be pleased to give further consideration to these issues in the context of an advance income tax ruling request, where all relevant facts, documentation and other relevant information are available and those facts can reasonably be expected to prevail. Alternatively, should you wish to receive the Department's opinion on a particular completed transaction, we would advise you to contact the relevant Tax Services Office.
Yours truly,
for Director
Resources, Partnerships and Trusts Division
Income Tax Rulings and Interpretations Directorate
