On the recordAugust 2, 1996
I am very concerned about regulations that were just issued by the IRS in May regarding the section 936 possession tax credit. These new regulations cast aside regulatory rules upon which companies have relied for many years permitting arm's length pricing in the purchase of components. The new regulations produce the discriminatory result that an arm's length third-party price can be used to value outbound sales of components but not inbound purchases of components by the possession company for purposes of the section 936 calculation. I believe that a fair and workable solution can be developed to address these concerns and would ask the Senator to join me in encouraging the Treasury Department to seek such a solution.
