Copy as parenthetical citation

(a)

(1) For the purpose of determining gain or loss, when property is exchanged for other property the property received in exchange shall be treated as the equivalent of cash to the amount of its fair market value if a market exists in which all the property so received can be disposed of at the time of exchange for a reasonable, certain, and definite price in cash.

(2) Otherwise, such exchange shall be considered as a conversion of assets from one (1) form to another, from which no gain or loss shall be deemed to arise.

(b) In the case of the organization of a corporation, the stock received shall be considered to take the place of property transferred for the stock, and no gain or loss shall be deemed to arise from the stock received.

(c) When, in connection with the reorganization, merger, or consolidation of a corporation, a taxpayer receives, in place of stock or securities owned by him or her, new stock or securities, then the basis of computing the gain or loss, if there is any, in a case where the stock or securities owned were acquired before January 1, 1928, shall be the fair market price or value thereof as of that date if such price or value exceeds the original cost, and in all other cases the cost thereof, under regulations to be promulgated by the Director of the Department of Finance and Administration.

(d) Title 26 U.S.C. §§ 351, 354-358, 361, 362, 367, and 368, as in effect on January 1, 2017, regarding corporate organization, reorganization, and recognition of gain, are adopted for the purpose of computing Arkansas income tax liability.
