               The separate taxable income of a member (including a                    
               case in which deductions exceed gross income) is                        
               computed in accordance with the provisions of the Code                  
               covering the determination of taxable income of                         
               separate corporations, subject to the following                         
               modifications:                                                          
                    (a) Transactions between members * * * shall be                    
               reflected according to the provisions of [section]                      
               1.1502-13 * * * ;                                                       
                                 *  *  *  *  *  *  *                                   
                    (d) The method of accounting under which such                      
               computation is made and the adjustments to be made                      
               because of any change in method of accounting shall be                  
               determined under [section] 1.1502-17;                                   
               Section 1.1502-13(b)(1), Income Tax Regs., provided that,               
          generally, gain or loss on intercompany transactions,27 other                
          than "deferred intercompany transactions", was not deferred or               
          eliminated.  Section 1.1502-13(b)(2), Income Tax Regs., however,             
          contained an exception to this rule:                                         
                    (2) Special rule.  If, in an intercompany                          
               transaction (other than a deferred intercompany                         
               transaction), one member would otherwise properly                       
               [take] an item of income or a deduction into account                    
               for a consolidated return year earlier than the year                    
               (whether consolidated or separate) for which another                    
               member of the group can properly take into account the                  
               corresponding item of income or deduction, then both                    
               the item of income and the deduction shall be taken                     
               into account for the later year (whether consolidated                   
               or separate).  * * *                                                    



               27  Sec. 1.1502-13(a)(1), Income Tax Regs., defined the term            
          "intercompany transaction" as "a transaction during a                        
          consolidated return year between corporations which are members              
          of the same group immediately after such transaction".
