Effect of the election. A corpora- tion making an election under para- graph (g)(2)(i) of this section must treat the taxable year as separate tax- able years for purposes of allocating items of income and loss; making ad- justments to the AAA, earnings and profits, and basis; and determining the tax effect of distributions under sec- tion 1368 (b) and (c). An election made under paragraph (g)(2)(i) of this section may be made upon the occurrence of any qualifying disposition. Disposi- tions of stock that are taken into ac- count as part of a qualifying disposi- tion are not taken into account in de- termining whether a subsequent quali- fying disposition has been made.

In the case of a taxable year for which an election is made under paragraph (g)(2)(i), for purposes of section 163(j), a separate section 163(j) limitation (as defined in § 1.163(j)–1(b)(36)) applies to each separate taxable year. Any items necessary to determine the amount of business interest expense (as defined in § 1.163(j)–1(b)(3)) that are deducted in each separate taxable year must be al- located between the two separate tax- able years in accordance with an allo- cation methodology provided in this paragraph (g).
