Article 39 E of the French General Tax Code

Each member of the ship co-ownerships mentioned in article 8 quater depreciates the cost price of its share of ownership in accordance with the procedures laid down in respect of ships; for the purposes of determining capital gains, the depreciation applied is deducted from the cost price.

The provisions of the first paragraph apply to financial years beginning on or after 1 January 1978. The depreciation deducted for tax purposes by the co-ownership in respect of previous financial years is divided between the co-owners in proportion to their rights in order to determine, for each share of ownership, the residual value remaining to be depreciated.

Article 39 E

Chaque membre des copropriétés de navires mentionnées à l’article 8 quater amortit le prix de revient de sa part de propriété suivant les modalités prévues à l’égard des navires ; pour la détermination des plus-values, les amortissements pratiqués viennent en déduction du prix de revient.

Les dispositions du premier alinéa s’appliquent aux exercices ouverts à compter du 1er janvier 1978. Les amortissements fiscalement déduits par la copropriété au titre des exercices antérieurs sont répartis entre les copropriétaires en proportion de leurs droits afin de déterminer, pour chaque part de propriété, la valeur résiduelle restant à amortir.
