**26 CFR Part 1**

**PART 1—INCOME TAXES**

*Paragraph 1.* The authority citation for part 1 continues to read in part as follows:

**Authority:**

26 U.S.C. 7805 * * *

*Par. 2.* Section 1.108(i)-2 is amended by revising paragraphs (b)(6)(i)(A)( *4* ), (c)(3)(i)(A)( *5* ), and (d)(2)(iii) *Example 2.* (ii) to read as follows:

§ 1.108(i)-2

(b) * * *

**Example 2.**

* * *

(ii) Under paragraph (d)(2) of this section, ABC partnership's deferred OID deduction  for 2012 is the lesser of: $23.25 ($31 of OID that accrues on the new debt instrument in 2012 less $7.75 of this OID that is allowed as a deduction to A in 2012) or $9.75 (the excess of $75 (ABC partnership's deferred COD income of $150 less A's share of ABC partnership's deferred COD income that is included in A's income for 2012 of $75) over $65.25 (the aggregate amount of OID that accrued in previous taxable years of $87 less the aggregate amount of such OID that has been allowed as a deduction by A in 2012 of $21.75)). Thus, of the $31 of OID that accrues in 2012, $9.75 is deferred under section 108(i).
